Galicia, 323 Portobello Road W10. Tel: 020 8969 3539. Tube: Ladbroke Grove

It has dodgy decor and rude waiters but it's absolutely proper Spanish food. Eleven of us had everything on the tapas menu, plus we all picked another favourite and there was loads of wine for £30 a head. I'd go tapas every time because it's such a sociable way of eating.

Hugo's Cafè, 21-25 Lonsdale Road NW6. Tel: 020 7372 1232. Tube: Queen's Park

An organic cafè and the food is lovely - everything you'd get in a normal restaurant, though I tried to get Diet Coke and they wouldn't let me. They're a bit over-the-top on the whole organic thing, but it's worthwhile. The steak is lovely.

Oxo Tower Restaurant, Oxo Tower Wharf, Barge House Street SE1. Tel: 020 7803 3888. Tube: Waterloo

Stunning venue, stunning food, stunning service and the view reminds you how beautiful London is. It's not the sort of place I could afford to eat all the time, but I think the staff are fully aware that most people go as a treat and they look after you really well.

The Salisbury, 50-52 Salisbury Road NW6. Tel: 020 7328 3286. Tube: Queen's Park

My local pub with a massive log fire, which is really cosy in the winter. And the food is lovely. They do a really good pumpkin risotto - that's my favourite.

Starvin' Marvin's, BP Service Station, Central Parade, Western Avenue UB6. Tel: 020 8998 5132. Tube: Perivale

This is my pikey choice. It's an American diner, a silver box with booths. I used to live in New York and they do the proper Yankee breakfasts with bacon and scrambled eggs.

Kelly is on Virgin Radio every weeknight from 7pm to 9pm.
