Brunch at House of Ho
Small plates include a few curvy summer rolls, stuffed full of noodles and served with a buttery peanut dip, and Pho Cuon rolls, lined with confit duck and crispy onions.
Afternoon Tea at Chateau Dessert
Miniatures include lemon meringues, banoffee bites, fruit tarts, coffee and praline domes, berries and assorted macarons and naughty little chocolates of ganache and biscuit.
Five Guys, Shepherds Bush
The burgers are tepid - the meat is a passionless patty of miscellaneous cow, set in a wad of hardened processed cheese in a characterless white bun. Don't do it.
Mabel’s, Covent Garden
Try the Tarte Tatin cocktail of sugar laced Calvados and Sipsmith vodka, or the Rhubarb and Raspberry Martini with Chase Rhubarb Vodka, Chambord and a lick of lemon.
Laduree – French toast & Chantilly cream
Buttery, eggy french toast under a cloud of Chantilly cream from Laduree, Covent Garden...
Dinner at Canvas, Chelsea
Maroon fleshelets of confit pigeon are smartly paired with sweet corn puree and kernals of popped corn, the combination of both is sweet and rich. It is only the start, and I am undone.
