I’ve been to Palomar and love it. For lunch, showing up about noon usually insures a seat at their long bar, and I enjoy watching the chefs doing their thing. The food is delicious, and maybe I like it just a tad more than Nopi. I’m usually on my own and find that everyone is very friendly and it’s easy to chat with a neighbor sitting next to one.
The same people have opened a new place at Covent Garden, so that is probably very good, too… haven’t yet gotten there. It’s called Barbary Coast.
