Kitchen W8

The delightful experience starts when you enter a cozy and intimate dining room. You're greeted by a very friendly and helpful staff who make you feel very special. The dinner is brought in a timely manner- the pacing of the meal is perfect, and food delectable. All in all a perfect night out.

Our second visit here, and just as good as we remembered pre-lockdown. Every course on the tasting menu was delicious - difficult to choose a favourite course as all were superb. The accompanying wine flight looked interesting and excellent value, although on this occasion we were dining on a free corkage offer. Fully deserves its michelin star.

A great restaurant located in the West End of London. It is easy to find using Google Maps. The food is well presented and the price is moderate. It is a very cost-effective restaurant in London where prices are high.

The restaurant's facade is inconspicuous, but it's a different world once you enter. The service is very good. Although it is a Michelin one-star restaurant, there is no dress code, so I, a tourist, can come to dine in jeans and sneakers! The fish I chose for the starter, the raw fish fillet is served with tomato jelly, avocado puree and basil juice, and it tastes very delicious! The main course is the pork tenderloin, which is a bit sweet with barley rice, and the meat is very tender! The dessert is white peach slices with raspberry smoothie, which is sweet and sour, delicious and refreshing! The bill for two people was only 110 pounds! It's really good value for money!

"British food with a French touch" is the apt self-description of Kitchen W8. Hidden away in a lane behind Holland Park, this affordable 1-star restaurant is frequented by residents of the surrounding area. To sum up my dining experience, it was a mixture of disappointment and delight. The chef's signature starter, thinly sliced ​​smoked eel with grilled mackerel, was confusing in taste, and the dessert was forgettable. However, in between the disappointment, two dishes, ravioli of salt cod and braised rabbit with hand-rolled gargenelli, were so delicious that they made your eyes light up. Not to mention the tender cod meat mixed with fish roe and wrapped in squid ink dumpling skin, the thin layer of fish sauce cooked with shallots is enough to make people drop their eyebrows; the stewed rabbit meat is also amazing. The ingredients of the whole dish are perfectly matched. The tender rabbit meat is paired with mushrooms, fragrant and refreshing baby leaf lettuce, carrot sauce, and homemade macaroni. Dip a mouthful of rabbit meat sauce with a bit of lemon sweet and sour - a hard and long week ends with a satisfying bite. This is what is called food that makes people happy. Overall evaluation: medium score for deliciousness, lower than my expectation of Mi Yixing, high cost performance.
