The bakery at St John Bar & Restaurant in Smithfield is out front and on show. The message is clear - if you have real bakers and chefs, put them and their equipment on show. 'Homemade food' menu descriptions and signage are then wonderfully redundant.
They still do the best Eccles cakes - £2.50 worth of heaven. See http://greatcafes.blogspot.com/2011/05/best-eccles-cake-ever.html
