Cocotte Notting Hill
Caroline:The lunch menu is £11 and with that, you get two sides, two sauces, and a quarter chicken. Enough said.

Portobello Ristorante Pizzeria
Caroline:Share their pizza, or get one for yourself. If you're not feeling that, the Vongole is superb. I would not recommend ULI next door.
