The Frontline Club

What’s happened to the Frontline Club restaurant? I’ve been going there for years and it used to be one of my favourite places to eat near Paddington.

We ordered several dishes but I’ll only comment on a few here. Halloumi Squash, Seed and Pomegranate Salad £9 - the halloumi looked nice but was very spongy and dry. I really don’t know how you can go wrong with halloumi but they did. Baked Aubergine Concasse, Mozzarella, Basil Pesto £15 - again, it looked nice but one bite of t...
