dorian- nottinghill Michelin steakhouse. has seafood but you will be remiss if you don't get the steak
Helene Darroze at the Connaught- special occasion tasting menu. Evan and I went here for Christmas & it was so fabulous. I hope to go back soon.

Cafe Cecillia- industrial mets trendy mets amazing. make sure to get some of their specials! some of the best octopus, scallops, and starters we had. I will say everything blew my socks off and then I got pork and It was a tad lackluster (I did order over lunch which is an aggressive lunch order).
