Recommendation numero uno: Hawksmoor, Seven Dials.

Hawksmoor- Seven Dials, is something a little different. Located in London’s ever cultured Covent Garden, the Hawksmoor debatably serves amongst other things, the tastiest steak in London. 

 

Although it lacks in interior glamour, its beauty lies in the robust menu, and the historical nostalgia, as the site itself is set in the basement of what was once, a brewery.

 

The layout is welcoming, with a much less ‘modern’ feel than other leading restaurants, but an abundance of charm, warmth and glorious smells of hearty food.

 

A variety of menu’s are served at this New York style restaurant, but it has a lunch menu to rival even the most established of restaurants.

 

To start why not try the Hand dived king scallop with champ, or perhaps Cumbrae Rock Oysters with Hawksmoor sausages.

 

Now for the main, if like me you’ll opt for steak, why not try the fillet with a stilton Hollandaise sauce. Or if you prefer a less meaty more 'American' main, the Lamb chops with creamed spinach and macaroni cheese?

 

If you have room for dessert, what about their popular Chocolate brownie with salted caramel ice cream or perhaps the Raspberry trifle, or both? 

 

I think you may be rolling out of this place.

 

A set (but somewhat restrictive) meal at the Hawksmoor with cost you around £20pp however, a typical meal for two, with wine and service will cost you approx £120.
