    Genuis in simplicity.

    St John is a unique restaurant serving great simple food that is beautifully executed.

    It is not the 10th best restaurant in the world - as suggested by one well known top 50 list - its not even 1,000th .

    Fergus Henderson has created a classic and long may he and it ssurvive.

    Solid British cooking, from the simple to the offaly - backed up with a great bakery and bar.

    This is one of my favourite restaurants in London. Very British cuisine with a modern twist. The dishes are fairly simple but are cooked really well. They only make a certain amount of dishes for each service so when they run out, then that's it which ensures everything is freshly made. Also, it's fun to keep an eye on the blackboard to make sure the dishes you want are still available! I tend to pre-order my dessert if I can see it's running low.

    I've been lucky enough to try their suckling pig (feeds 14-16). I can't recommend it enough. It's the only thing I've eaten that has made me cry because it was so good (although I'd had a few drinks...)lol

    It's not the cheapest place but it's somewhere to go for a nice treat. Enjoy.

    I was always wary of going in here in case it didn't live up to the hype, but I finally bit the bullet. My only regret was not doing it sooner - the food was utterly gorgeous, especially the bone marrow on toast and the rare roast beef. You certainly couldn't eat here day in day out (not just the cost but the sheer richness) but an absolute must for anyone who appreciates the fine art of meat. Food to die for.
