Alyn Williams at the Westbury – Preview Supper Club: Last year I was lucky enough to visit the Westbury to review, a stunning five star luxury hotel in the heart of Mayfair, London’s most exclusive shopping district. I was hoping to be able to visit Alyn Williams at the Westbury then, but sadly the restaurant […]
The Best Restaurants in London
Probably the Best London Restaurants? Here at London-Unattached, we love eating out. And in 2017 we know we enjoyed superb meals at some of the best London restaurants. As our round-up shows, it’s a cosmopolitan city and one where you can enjoy every cuisine in the world. My own favourite London restaurant is also probably […]
The Perfect Tarte Tatin – and the cheat recipe!
Professional Tarte Tatin from Galvin Brothers vs the cheat version: Earlier this year I was invited to take part in a competition to make the perfect Tarte Tatin. Unfortunately, I was in France at the time, but one of my friends did take part – and amazingly, he won! Ed Benson (who I’ve known for […]
Bistro Vadouvan – Spiced Up French Food in Putney
Modern French Dining with Indian Spice: I have to admit to a little trepidation when I checked out the menu for Bistro Vadouvan. I love classic French food but in the wrong hands, the idea of adding spice to a pâté de campagne or harissa to a bouillabaisse could be disastrous. But, I was reassured when I […]
Galvin Bistrot de Luxe – Classic French
Galvin Bistrot de Luxe Review: There are moments in life where you need to forego the ethics of food blogging in the greater interest of your stomach. One such moment for me came on a recent visit to Galvin Bistrot de Luxe. A busy brasserie/bistro in Marylebone, Galvin Bistrot de Luxe is the much loved […]
Ametsa with Arzak Instruction
Basque Michelin Dining in London – Ametsa with Arzak Instruction at The Halkin: I’m in the process of planning a trip to San Sebastian and the Basque region. It’s a part of Spain well known for a concentration of excellent restaurants and bars – including Arzak – a three-star Michelin restaurant. In the meantime and with […]
Hedone – Fine Dining in Chiswick
Ticking off my Wishlist – a Visit to Hedone, Chiswick: I eat out a lot; restaurants that stay on my wishlist for any time tend to be expensive, out of the way or have a frighteningly long wait list for a table. Hedone may be close to Chiswick Park tube, but it’s not an area […]
Curry for Change at Benares, Mayfair
Fine Dining in Mayfair – Curry for Change at Benares: My guilty secret – when I was first asked to get involved with Curry for Change, the restaurant that I really wanted to visit was Benares. I have been before, several years ago and loved it then. Now, with a slightly better understanding of Indian […]
Petrus Restaurant Review
Fine dining, elegant presentation and great wine. Guest Post by Russell Bowes: Petrus sits just around the corner from the High Street in the heart of London’s swanky Knightsbridge. From the outside it looks quite unassuming, not shouting about either its location or the plenty of fine dining going on inside. I think it’s worth […]
Fine Dining By The Sea – Restaurant Nathan Outlaw Review:
Seafood Tasting Menu at Restaurant Nathan Outlaw: This particular excursion has been on my wish list for some time. Last year on my annual visit to the Boscastle Food and Craft Festival, we made a diversion to the Seafood Grill at Rock and vowed that THIS year we’d be rather better organised and book the […]
