Neris mentioned this thread at the meet on Saturday - as someone who likes eating food and dining out (when I can afford it, which isn't all that often) thanks for bringing it to my attention. My first recommendation is Mosaica @ The Factory in Wood Green (N22). It's a bit out the way unless you are a Haringey resident like me I guess, but I'd heartily recommend it. Modern British with a slight emphasis on fish (at the moment anyway, the menu is seasonal and changes every week) about £40 a head for three courses and wine. I ate there on Tuesday and it was excellent, I had seabass served with unfathomably gorgeous fried chorizo and potato and it was very yummy. My brother's pork belly was very nice too and the parma ham starter he had was truly excellent. My sister had a rib eye steak which was well cooked and perfectly fine, but you'd be better off going to a proper steak restaurant. It's also a really intriguing place as it is located in a disused warehouse space in an industrial estate, hence the '@ The Factory' label. You go into the building which still has businesses operating in the other units and take a short walk through the corridors, directions are clearly displayed, to come to a plain door with an A4 sheet of paper on the front emblazoned RESTAURANT - only to open it up and walk into something akin to a New York loft extension! The experience is a bit Alice In Wonderland, but it adds to the charm. It's a bit out the way if you're not a North Londoner but I'd heartily recommend it to anyone.

Leong's Legends is pretty decent, though to be pedantic it's Taiwanese and not Chinese food. The xiao long bao are great. It's not really sloppy take away style, but still quite reasonable.

San Marco is a nice Italian place just by Bruce Grove station. They do 'proper' square Roman style pizzas.
