Description:
AIRPORT - QQW. Hailed as one of the millennium's most enterprising restaurants, Canteen put British fare back on the map. Everything here is made from scratch, from the devilled kidneys to the Hollandaise sauce and tomato ketchup. Seating is – yep, you guessed it – canteen style. While this new branch sits beautifully on London's South Bank, the original Spitalfields outpost also does a sterling trade. Follow potted duck, piccalilli and toast with a succulent British pie and textbook roast. TUBE: Waterloo |

Description:
MAYFAIR. The Wolseley's Viennese theme, classic interiors, consistent cooking and esteemed clientele make it an establishment, even though it's relatively new, compared with its neighbor The Ritz. Those in the know come here for breakfast: Omelette Arnold Bennett never fails to please (the eggs are sublime). Baked whole seabass with tomato and tarragon and wiener schnitzel from the rotisserie provide reliable meal options. A genuine occasion venue, this grande dame has unbeatable people-watching potential to boot. TUBE: Piccadilly Circus |

Description:
ST. JAMES'S. To dine at one of the top addresses in town, you'll need to call months in advance. The tres-chic diners who frequent this black-and-white room typically include members of parliament and celebrities, all of whom come for classic cuisine and unobtrusive service. Traditional British dishes fill the menu: deep-fried haddock with minted pea puree and chips, griddled scallops, roast rack of Herdwick lamb, and fish cakes (called "the best in the civilized world" by a local critic). But, international influences are evident in Thai-baked seabass, and interesting desserts include butterscotch and clotted cream ice cream with toffee sauce. A top pick for fine dining, and slightly easier to get a table at lunch if you're willing to go late. TUBE: Green Park |
