Mikael, it is wonderful reading your commentary. And then to read the raves of on-line friends for the food you are serving. I admire you for realizing this dream. And will scheme and plan to get to eat at Hedone, perhaps in the fall.

Mikael, you and your staff did yourselves proud, that sea bass was as good a sea bass as I have ever eaten, I barely cared that it was a little undercooked. I’m looking forward to coming back already. Can you remind me what the red wine was that was served with the beef?

Congrats, Mikael! I’ve been following this with much interest. As if the Sportsman weren’t enough of a reason… will try to book a trip sometime this year.

As a very local gourmand I wish you every success. Judging by the healthy turnouts at places like Michael Nadra and Le Trompette, you’ve come to the right part of London. What’s more, if you really are inspired by the likes of L’Ami Jean or Extebarri, my wife and I will be dining at your place every week. Any special opening offers would be greatly appreciated!

I wonder how on pronounces ‘Hedone’? – its is ‘head-doughn’, ‘head- dough- neh’, hed-dun? You can never underestimate customers capacity to see/read/interpret things in different ways..

Good luck for the opening. Your blog has me intrigued enough to visit. Chiswick seems to have a new restaurant at least every month with very few standing out as different or interesting.

Comment on PR and marketing by Phil

The two biggest mistakes I have seen made by new restaurants are spending money on an expensive till/billing/computer system, and hiring a PR consultant.

Both are a complete waste of money, but I guess that a till/billing/computer system has some small residual value. The money spent on a PR consultant is however a total loss.
