Tough that, classy bird in Lonjon and all that..
We eat/drink at Plateau in Canary Wharf (£70ph)but thats too far from you (great view of the Towers though)
Sooo… hmmm…. Princi is a rustic (but reasonably snooty) hip pizza joint in Wardour St, funky enough to go dressed up in,(£35ph) then head to HIX for cocktails perhaps (on Brewer St)(£’000’sph…hic)
Or.. theres a great veggie restaurant in Soho on the way to Goulden Sq, well nice, v relaxed but snooty enough (I’m asking MrsB for the name of it as it escapes me… 😳 ) Ahh Mildreds I think, anyways it’s got a pale blue exterior and there will be a queue out to get in, worth the wait though.(£60ph)
You could go to the Nat Portrait Gallery restaurant (above the galleries, entrance at the rear) thats nice, great view over TrafSq, French’ish food, wines good, loadsa posh folks in there (£80ph)
Don’t eat out on the Southbank sorry..
Edit, Mildreds on Lexington St, Soho W1F9AN
