The Mediterranean sharing plates and simple pasta dishes are well worth a trip to The Oak - a relaxed Notting Hill gastropub - but it is the wood-fired pizza that we would happily wait an hour for (they don't take reservations).
Our favourite? A crusty mozzarella and tomato pizza topped with chargrilled zucchini, salted ricotta and wild rocket and then lightly drizzled with truffle oil. The wood fire technique gives the delicate pizza base a crispy lightness but leaves the centre soft but not soggy.
It tastes and smells like the Mediterranean summer holiday we all wish we were on.
