The other day my parents decided to escape from the country, hop in the car and make a spontaneous weekend trip to London
We made our way through London's busy high streets, stopping to make quick pit stops at some shops before eventually making our way to Fenwick's to grab a spot of lunch
We reluctantly walked past the handbag section, hopped on the lifts and zoomed up a few floors to the eagerly awaiting restaurant
We grabbed our seats and began to scour the menu, my parents have been raving about this restaurant for a very long time, and the Tapas option available
Unfortunately the options on offer didn't float my boat, so as I had a few minutes to spare before breakfast ended I ordered Salmon with Scrambled eggs and Brioche
Honestly breakfast is the best meal of the day, whether its the calorie riddled pancakes, a fully cooked breakfast big enough to feed a family of 4, or light and fluffy scrambled eggs on toast
However the more adventurous side of the table went for an array of options
All small enough to have a little taster of, but large enough to be ridiculously full at the end
My Mother opted for the Risotto with micro veg, fresh herbs and broad beans
Spiced Lamb and Potato Cakes with Yogurt and mint dressing
As well as Seared Halloumi, with English Tomato, Caper and Shallot dressing
Whilst my dad went for the Steak Tartare With Molten's Quail egg, truffle and chips
Grilled Sardine with Orzo and Tomato Chutney
And Seared Halloumi, with English Tomato, Caper and Shallot dressing
I couldn't help but steal a few mouth full's of the pretty looking dish's
We got stuck in, chatted about our holiday plans and what to do for the rest of the weekend
Funnily enough Shopping, bars and supper were the main voters
After devouring enough Scrambled egg to sink a ship, I instantly ordered the dessert menu and knew straight away what I wanted
Now I have a real weakness for Macaroons, especially Laduree so as soon as I saw they had home made Macaroons on the menu I just couldn't say no
I opted for the Mango, Strawberry, Chocolate and Lemon
Of course my favourite was the chocolate, closely followed by Lemon, Strawberry then Mango
I finished up all traces, grabbed a hot chocolate then decided to later that day visit Laduree to buy even more Macaroons
You can never have to many Macaroons right?
The staff at the restaurant were so welcoming, helpful and polite and even gave us extra Smarties
Win Win
With an elegant british ambiance to the restaurant, and an extensive menu whats not to love about this place!
