Christmas Eve dinner at the Ivy

[@jimmysavage1347]

Happy Christmas, Darren. I follow a few different people's vlogs but yours is the one I look forward to most. Daisy Duke helps I think. Anyway, keep up the good work. Love it. Jimmy in Dublin.

[@DarrenJohn]

Happy holidays Jimmy, thank you

[@susanwaite1187]

The food was worth every penny in my view. Your Mum is very glamorous and what a lovely young man Luke is ,Turkey and goose yummy😊

[@DarrenJohn]

Thanks so much

[@steg1550]

I say to all my mates who still have there mum with them, mums are special people you only get 1 treat them well and treasure them. Because when they are gone you are going to miss her everyday of your life.

[@DarrenJohn]

I miss my Dad 🙂🙏

[@Tward2929]

You’re blessed to still have your mom. I’m 38 and lost my mom last November. Not a moment goes by where I don’t think of her. God bless.

[@DarrenJohn]

I miss my Dad Tim - season greetings from London

[@danieldydzak691]

God bless your mom , my mother is turning 85 soon , looks like your mom and son enjoyed the meal. Best to your family.

[@chrisaris8756]

That looked a cracking meal. Think my wife and I need a trip back up to London for a bit of quality!! Not even expensive! I’ve spent a lot more for less, especially here in East Sussex!! Have a great day tomorrow.

[@DarrenJohn]

Thanks Chris, you too

[@SalarianUnlimited]

Lovely to see 3 generations of the John family enjoying such a wonderful meal together - the family likeness running through all 3 of you is remarkable! Happy co-incidence to meet up with someone from past video. I wish each and every one of you a very Happy Christmas and ditto for the New Year - may that bring in peace and love for all - and for those who don't observe Christmas as such - just enjoy the weekend of 'super indulgence' and family time - these occasions are so precious x

[@DarrenJohn]

Thank you for sharing Anna - happy holidays

Oh my! All that food looked truly amazing!! 😋 I’m a bit behind watching, so all the very best to you Darren John and your family for a fantastic 2023 🍾🥂🥳😘

[@DarrenJohn]

Thank you! You too Jan

[@ThePensta81]

How sweet are you taking Luke and your beautiful mum to The Ivy for Christmas Eve. As you said, the facial expressions definitely run in the family. Super cute. Every single dish looked absolutely amazing but I would expect nothing less from The Ivy. I completely agree that you get what you pay for (in most cases) and if you can't treat yourself and loved ones at Christmas, when can you. We only live once, so I say enjoy! 🥰 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your beautiful family. 🎄🎅🏼🤶🏼🎁Thank you again for taking us along on your amazing KZbin journey and sharing your gorgeous City with us. It's always an absolute pleasure to watch. Here's to an amazing year next year. I can't wait to see what brilliant places and adventures you take us on. 🍾🥂💙

[@DarrenJohn]

Thank you Penny - happy holidays to you and your family this Christmas time 🎅🙏🙂

I lived and worked in London for 22 years now I live in Gdynia Poland having met a Polish girl working in London : I’ve started watching your channel and appreciate your honesty also the Restaurants in and around the City many of which I visited on a regular basis : The Ivy in Tottenham Court Road is a favourite of mine a wee bit expensive but worth it for the experience: Christmas wishes from Polska Scot-Pol
