Grown up romanticBibendum is a restaurant I have been visiting for nearly 15 years and it still remains a favourite. The design/ambience is grown up romantic - especially in the evening. Or a place to impress the prospective parents in law over lunch if the romance is proving that successful! The food is always of the very highest quality. Wonderful French classics alongside some modern intrepretations. The fois gras is divine and the lamb one of my favourite main courses. Any of the fish dishes are good too. And the wine list is probably one of the best in London. Take your time and have a leisurely meal - just like the French. This is both a place to linger and the food to be thoroughly appreciated. ]]> Thu, 03 May 2007 15:04:07 +0000 /review/uk/london/restaurant/1c52q77/bibendum1271116686 anniec romantic expensive but still good value beautiful setting intelligent staff elegant French 51.492890522125 -0.16912340406917 Roka http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/london/restaurant/1a42l8y/roka

Japanese with a twistRoka has to be one of my favourite places in London to eat. Forget about Japanese food being only sushi and rice and concentrate on Roka's fantastic grill dishes. The chef from Australia combines seasonal fresh highly innovative combinations of ingredients that melt on the tongue and titillate your taste buds. The staff are also very competent and helpful. Often I go and just ask for their recommendations - that way I have been encouraged to try new things and I have never been disappointed. Whatever happens choose the beef dish. Cocktails are also beautiful to look and taste divine. The ambience is cool without being cold. The only downside is that due to its increasing popularity it can be difficult to get a reservation.
