With what has rapidly become the hottest London restaurant on Twitter, Roganic is something of a joyous enigma. Chef Patron Simon Rogan, Head Chef Ben Spalding and his team are able to turn out extraordinary food in what is essentially a tiny and cramped site. But the genius of the restaurant is that it recognises this restriction and has managed to turn it to its advantage.
dines at Galvin at Windows....
Just a quickie today :0) And be warned - the word fabulous is going to appear rather a lot!
Last night I had dinner at Galvin's on Park Lane. We'd been at the Serpentine Party, and for once I was actually ravenous when we arrived at the restaurant.
Depending on your sensibilities, Galvin either has a fabulous location, way up in the Hilton and with breathtaking views over London, or perhaps has dizzying effects on your stomach as you peer over the edge. The restaurant itself is very nicely laid out, and with a multi-tier effect, you don't feel the space so much. I assume it was laid out in this way to afford everyone a decent view out of the window...

dines at Corrigan's Mayfair...
Choosing a restaurant in our house always begins in the most random way: Richard Corrigan has been on the telly quite a lot lately, what with Great British Menu and Saturday Kitchen, and the Hubby wondered why we'd never been to his restaurant. He was adamant that he'd never seen Corrigan's Mayfair on Upper Grosvenor Street, or heard anyone mention it.
dines at the Savoy Grill...
In the autumn we were all terribly excited at the prospect of returning to the Savoy... The last time I'd been, some time before it had closed, it had been empty, deflated and the decor was definitely faded. It was however genuine and true to itself, especially when combined with the utterly luscious interiors of the theatre. I was disappointed that they'd sold off the entire contents of the hotel, but one had to assume that they were going to create an entirely new experience for the 21st century.
