A couple of weeks ago Vicky and I popped into Angela Hartnet's Mayfair flagship restaurant Morano on the off-chance there might be a table available for lunch. There was more than one and we were shown to that enviable table between the toilet and the servers' central island. No shortage of traffic then.
Despite this inauspicious start, the service was terrific and the food even better. What we really liked was the waitress asking us before she brought the traditional amuse guelle, "Do you have any allergies, or preferences?" Vicky sensibly mentioned that she do not eat meat. Seems a wise statement as the amuse guel was oodles of posh sliced ham.
By chance we had the opportunity to capture herself, Angela Hartnet and chat. Told her we were first customers at new place in Camden. She said she was concentrating on getting her second Michelin star at Morano. Liked her honesty, and loved her restaurant. I'd give her a second star over some of the awful places in London which already have two.
Loved the meal let me know if you want details
