"Dine on fine, seasonal British ingredients prepared with French influences at Marcus, acclaimed chef Marcus Wareing's flagship Michelin-starred restaurant in Belgravia. Lake District sirloin with bordelaise sauce, Cornish lobster with scorched yam or pan-roasted foie gras with cep and brioche: the menu is packed with bold and indulgent flavours."

"Located on Wilton Place, this Knightsbridge restaurant is a must for all food lovers. The perfect place for a special occasion, this Marcus Wareing-led spot serves up gorgeous plates like slow-cooked egg with courgette, truffle and girolles alongside desserts that combine coffee with mascarpone and bourbon."

"Hidden below street level in the swishy Hari Hotel, stepping into Il Pampero feels like stepping back into to a bygone era of Italian glamour, all white tablecloths, deep green furnishings, low lighting and charming Italian waiters. It’s elegant without being ostentatious, and the leather-clad window booths add an important touch of cosiness (perfect for a date). The glamorous central bar is irresistible for a classic Italian aperitivo (beware the deliciously strong Negroni) before sitting down to a feast of antipasti that include beef carpaccio with generous shavings of black truffle and surprisingly moreish fried scamorza (smoked cheese) bites served on a bed of radicchio with balsamic vinegar."

"Il Pampero is an absolute must for Italian fine dining in London, serving a menu of authentic classics with a modern twist. Get your fill of homemade pasta, fresh seafood and succulent meat dishes washed down with fine wine in an exquisite setting."

"Il Pampero is a sleek Italian restaurant in London's Belgravia neighbourhood. Offering a luxurious drinking and dining experience, this place serves exceptional, authentic bites with a modern twist from its home in the Hari Hotel."

"Restaurants Australian Shoreditch. Lantana’s weekend brunch menu rings the changes when compared to the standard menus on offer throughout the week. A few classics (think smashed avocado and honey granola with Greek yoghurt) sit alongside more unusual assemblies including duck and sweet potato hash, a salmon poke bowl and a pork belly bánh mì burger with gochujang mayo."

"At Notting Hill’s Eggbreak, you can get them in pretty much any way imaginable. Keep it traditional with an eggs Benedict topped with brown butter hollandaise and hardwood smoked bacon, get a little fancy with burrata and truffle scrambled eggs on top of challah bread with chives, or get a little filthy with the “Spicy piggy Bun”, which features a Gochujang-spiced pork patty, homemade chilli jam, a fried egg and American cheese, all squished into a potato brioche bun."

"Neighbourhood Notting Hill restaurant, Eggbreak is temporarily closed but is currently offering old favourites and new specials via Deliveroo, for collection and delivery. Menu highlights include the ‘spicy piggy bun’, ‘eggs, bacon and cheesy toastie’, and the ‘Hot for Eggbreak Tabasco frittata sando’. Further information can be found at eggbreak.com."

"And when we say eggs, we don’t just mean the ‘done any way’ kind. We mean done every way: ways that you didn’t even know were possible. Try the Sweet Potato with goat’s cheese, honey, kale, pine nuts, dill yoghurt and poached egg if you’re after something different and downright delicious, or opt for their Burrata & Truffle Scrambled Eggs."

"Restaurants Taiwanese Tooting. A spin-off from Peckham’s popular Mr Bao, this hip Asian hangout is a dark, buzzy, atmospheric spot dedicated to fluffy Taiwanese buns and more. Weekend brunch (11am-4pm) is served alongside the regular menu, and there’s some classic stuff on show – including two bao benedict dishes and a ‘Full Taiwanese’ – a spring onion pancake, Taiwanese sausage, smoked bacon, Asian beans, spiced eggs and a bao bun."
