Welcome to ... London
London – what a place. A city of unrivalled history, art, culture and nightlife, there is nowhere quite like it. Home to sweeping views over the South Bank and the London Eye and the flashing lights of the West End, London town is also home to the British Royal Family and the Royal Parks
London is also famous for the dizzying rush of the City, the history and urban edge of East London and Camden, incredible shopping on Bond Street and Mayfair, world-class Art Galleries, Museums and Sports Attractions, not to mention one of the highest concentrations of Michelin-starred restaurants in the world. With the sheer history, diversity and swagger few places can match, the Olympic Host City is the destination of 2012.... read more

Busaba Eathai
Posted by James Street Oct 2011
Busaba Eathai has been going for ten years now, and is certainly one of my favourite places to eat in London. They have several locations already established in the capital, and no doubt they will continue to expand in years to come. The restaurants come from the same culinary whiz who created globally renowned chains such as Wagamama, Hakassan (London's only Michelin star Chinese restaurant) and, more recently, Yauatcha, which has also received a Michelin Star. This person is, of course, Alan Yau (if the last restaurant did not give the game away). The food at Busaba Eathai is Thai, and I challenge you to find a tastier version of any of their dishes at any restaurant in town. The biggest problem when going there is choosing what to eat, because everything is that good. Therefore, I find the best way is to go with a group of friends and order lots to share. The menu is largely based around three types of food: curries, noodles and stir fries. I'd definitely recommend the mussaman duck curry, the green thai curry, the ostrich, fried chicken, pandan chicken, the pad thai... the list could go on, as the entire menu is so delicious. Certainly, you could walk past the Bird Street branch near Selfridges without even knowing it is there; with darkened windows, low lighting and incense burning they have certainly managed to take you out of London for an hour or so which is a great feeling. The food comes fast, the prices are reasonable and to go there is to become an avid fan. I used to love Wagamama; now I love Busaba.
Chez Patrick
Posted by pat d. Apr 2011
It was our second visit..we wanted a special place to celebrate and naturally Chez Patrick was the obvious choice,since we enjoyed it so much few month ago. Still very good food and service, The owner and his team looked well after us too,despite having almost a full house. Few new dishes since our last visit,a face lift inside- outside was done,so little subtle changes but nothing to throw you out of your comfort zone...i like that too. A very,very pleasant evening indeed.We hope to go back sooner this time.
Tentazioni

I´m part Italian, and all I have to say is that this is one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. The food is very tasty and well served. The staff was perfect. The price is high for the food, but it is worth it.
Café Rouge - Blackheath
Posted by Kelly Wall Mar 2011
Beautiful French restaurant. It is a good place to drop by and hang out over a dessert and coffee, or do as we did and enjoy an excellent lunch. All the more authentic for the superbly snotty French waiter, the food was simple, genuine and reasonably priced. Well worth a visit.
