Can anyone recommend a Taster Menu restaurant in town?

Definitely the Ledbury then. But easier to get a table at Launceston Place and I would highly recommend (but a bit farther) Hedone in Chiswick. They got their Michelin Star but the prices are not so steep as they are not central and are fairly new. Delicious food and it's an open kitchen so you can watch your food being plated up almost in front of you!

Dabbous also but again difficult to get a booking.

Roganic and Viajante are great if you want the multi-course experience, but food which is a little lighter. The Kitchen Table (at Bubbledogs) could also be an interesting alternative, and is a pretty unique environment.


Ledbury is great, but you need to book well in advance. Le Gavroche for an all-out gutbuster. Cinnamon Club or Benares for fancy Indian food.

I love Clos Maggiore in Covent Garden which does great French food and is a really beautiful restaurant as well.


As it doesn't have the status of the Ledbury etc i think it is also easier to book.


I also prefer the atmosphere is CM as it is cosier and more intimate - depends what you're looking for!


Have a great night wherever you go!

You'll have a great time but do try Murano next time - absolutely my favourite restaurant in London.

I know you've booked but just in case you change your mind, I'd also second Clos Maggiore just off Covent Garden, very romantic venue (ask for a table in the conservatory) and gorgeously rich fine dining without being stuffy. I've eaten the best meals of my life there!

    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
