Dinner by Heston ***** £45

Words cannot easily describe dining at this place. Inspired by old British Cuisine, Blumenthal fuses together molecular gastronomy with British food. Although we only had lunch here, all 4 courses we tried were splendid. It certainly has a very upscale feeling, as well as impeccable service. Excellent views towards Hyde Park as well as towards the Chefs! If it wasn't so darn expensive, I would definitely be visiting there very often :-)

The Admiral Codrington *** £25

This is a tucked-away pub that serves one of the best burgers in London. It actually has a proper dining room that matches an upscale restaurant rather than a pub. Still, the £15 beef burger is to die for. (Even though I think Hawkmoor's is better).

Med Kitchen ** £25

That's exactly your average Mediterranean chain restaurant. It's not great, but if you are around and are looking for something simple to eat, it can be a good bet.

Wild Honey *** £30

This Michelin-starred restaurant has one of the best lunch deals for lunch in town - just  £24 per person. It wasn't much in terms of quantity, but just adequate. The Honey ice cream is just astonishing :-)
