Zinc review by Died On Hold

Zinc used to be my number 1 weekend breakfast spot. The big tables, ample supply of newspapers, good coffee and delicioius bacon sandwich kept myself and Mrs DOH coming back week after week. Kids now make our visits rarer, but I squeezed one in today. The coffee is still good, and the big table saw me through 31 pages of sports section, but I'm sad to say the bacon sandwich has lost its zing. I don't know if they changed the recipe, but it's not the same as in its beetroot and mayo-infused glory days (c. 2003-08). Harsh perhaps to mark down from 4 stars to 3 on the back of one dish, but when you eat that dish every time it's material! I still like Zinc though, including its unusual combination of speedy, but diffident, service.
