London Meals
Aug. 4th, 2014 01:29 amWe had two spectacular meals in London, besides the joy of returning to YMing, our favorite Chinese restaurant.
( The Ledbury )
( The Kitchen Table at Bubbledogs )
So, two great and very different meals. One thing we found notable is that neither place offered wine pairings--it seems not to be a thing in London. At The Ledbury we asked and the sommelier was happy to accommodate the request with half-glasses per course, but at Bubbledogs their wine list was more limited and it just didn't seem plausible. This seems like a real missed opportunity and I wonder why they don't do it.
We've always enjoyed dining in London and it was a real treat to try a couple of the new entries on various Best Of lists.
