The Baltic

No, not that stretch of cold water between Sweden and the vari­ous half-starved states on the East­ern side but a splen­did res­taur­ant just by South­wark Tube on Black­fri­ars Road.  An extremely com­pre­hens­ive vodka bar, excel­lent and well-cooked food, nicely presen­ted in mod­est por­tions without it being a rip-off, and jazz on a Sunday even­ing.  What more could any­one want ?
