Kalendar
Rating: Three stars
Guaranteed to be bustling, whatever the month of year it is, Kalendar offers good food with the opportunity for a large dollop of people-watching.
Based on the very pretty Swain's Lane, opposite Hampstead Heath, Kalendar's extensive cafe-style menu has seen it become a popular haunt for locals, with dogs of every size and shape in tow.
We headed their today for brunch and opted for a large eggs benedict (£7.95) and a small meze platter (£6.95).
The eggs benedict was a triumph - with runny egg yolks, cripsy bacon and a perfectly toasted muffin. The meze platter was ok, but the presentation let it down, as the dips has been sloppily piled on the plate. The flavours of the dips, however, helped to rescue the dish and in particular, the fresh home-made tzatziki was delicious.
Planning a quiet weekend? Wiling the hours away in Kalender's Al Fresco eating area is definitely recommended.
