London Fine & Trendy Dining AMA (July 2023)

Just finished a week in London eating at Muse by Tom Aiken, Murano, Dishoom, Cinnamon Club, Bancone, Barrafina, Jamavar, Elystan, Frenchie, Sushi Samba, Trattoria Popolare and afternoon tea at the Connaught ...

Muse by Tom Aiken was by far and way the best of the list above. Tom served us many of the dishes personally. Bread was to die for. Optional caviar course was great too though cauliflower was slightly overpowering the main dish.

Dishoom was great, and I accidentally figured out a hack: show up before noon, order an adult beverage, wait until noon to order from the lunch menu. When we left the line up was 50+ people outside.....

Service at Jamavar fell far short of 1*... didnt even refill wine glass during entire dinner. Lamb chops were OK but not at 20 pounds each.

Frenchie was mostly empty for lunch, despite great food. Fair 29 fixed menu for lunch though i upgraded to the foie gras (as one must).
