The funkiest and certainly most eclectic restaurant in W6 is Mes Amis. James, the cook and owner has had the little restaurant for 20 years – and for 20 years his customers have brought him little salt and pepper pots and other knicknacks from their travels.
So Mes Amis is not the place for minimalists, but an Aladdin’s cave for the more adventurous diner.
