I go to Oakhill Park in East Barnet to use their pitch and putt course. When we went there last Wednesday, the course had not opened, so we went for a coffee. It was then that we noticed that the cafe was serving Eastern European food for lunch, so we gave it a go.
The cafe has a web site on http://www.oakhillparkcafe.co.uk/ which is somewhat crudely put together, but it does not reveal that there are daily boards outside offering a taste of Eastern Europe with numerous dishes such as Goulash, Zureck and pierogi.
Coffee was decent an £2.10 for a big mug.
I chose the Zurek soup, but when it arrived, it seemed that there had been a misunderstanding and it was Goulash soup that arrived for both of us. We opted for the bread bowl thinking it would be a bowl of bread, but it turned out to be a bowl of bread. You eat the bowl.
Just what you need on a hot day, and it was also very hot, scoring a 9.6 on the CHOF scale.
I have to say that this was an excellent surprise having the taste of the east, with a very home made bread. I have no reservations about this experience, and am looking forward to having another al fresco lunch in the park. The soup and a cup of coffee cost £8.20 which is great value for what it was: a real foreign experience.
