Greek restaurant · Bounds Green

"Twenty years after its late-1990s heyday, Vrisaki is still the most famous restaurant in Palmers Green, and has been a hub for the community surrounding Myddleton Road for as long as it has existed. Photos of celebrity patrons on the wall — Pauline Quirke, Antony Costa, Sven and Nancy — and out of date Evening Standard awards suggest faded glory, but the food here is still worth it. Diners with ordering FOMO are well served by the comically large set meze, which runs through the menu’s entirety in two dozen mini portions of dips, salads, cured meat and seafood. The less greedy should just skip straight to the grilled meat: three kinds of souvlaki, sheftalia (softer and more pillowy than the Paneri equivalents), or Flintstone-sized chunks of lamb souvla, slow-cooked over charcoal. As always, take-away is unbelievably good value and a large open kebab supplemented with vegetarian meze or keftedes (Greek-Cypriot meatballs) could feed two for less than £15." - Jonathan Nunn
