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!

    • Emirates Stadium is  >60,00 but they tend to be very quiet 🙂 Jokes aside though, it's a case in point. Highbury was <40,000 and was 300M up the road, so there are definitely Islington residents who used to live half a mile from a fairly big football stadium, and now live right by a massive one. One that holds rock/pop concerts too accomodating 70,000 fans whether they like ot or not.   40% of Islington households are in social housing so regardless of when they moved their current homes, they may have had little say in exactly where they are housed.   
    • St Christopher's only take books in perfect condition. 
    • This is where I sit too. A two day event is bearable. Three tests my tolerance. Finding the right balance on size, noise and impact is where I contribute to the consultation process. BUT, as I wrote elsewhere, every year the GALA organisers ask/ push for more, and deals have already been done with the council before it gets to public consultation stage. It is also worth pointing out that when a licence was first granted, the orgnaisation was different (We Are the Fair), one of the company directors lived literally next to the park (she left when it became GALA) and the current form bears no resemblance to original ethos/ vision sold to the council and licensing committee. This needs to be pointed out and I am fairly confident local councillors would also support a pushback on any further expansion. We have local elections next year, so councillors ears will be open.
    • Niko was really great. He fixed my blocked shower very quickly, was great at communicating and a lovely guy to talk to. And he doesn't charge the earth!
