When visiting a city I will always try to find a restaurant that has amazing food but more importantly a gorgeous view of the city. In London @theportraitrestaurant has got one of the best views you would want. Perched on the top floor of the @nationalportraitgallery , the light filled restaurant by @chefcorrigan serves delicious and refined modern British cuisine. Must try are the Secret smokehouse salmon with fennel shavings, pomegranate and goat’s cheese and also the succulent fillet of beef with crisp potatoes and a peppercorn sauce.
What’s even more perfect is the location of the restaurant- it’s at the top floor of the National Portrait Gallery, which is a must visit and also next door to the @nationalgallery (both Galleries are free to visit) - so The Portrait Restaurant is a perfect spot for lunch or dinner while visiting the galleries.

South Kensington has a wonderful collection of museums, most of which are free to visit but free online booking is recommended as they do give priority to ticket holders 🎟️
The following are right next to each other
@natural_history_museum (free but book online for a faster entry as there were queues first thing in the morning )
@sciencemuseum (tends to be less crowded, no queues in the morning - free entry )
@vamuseum ( free entry no queues in the morning )
Then head into Kensington Gardens where you will find Kensington Palace (Adult £24 / Child £12) - Childhood home of Queen Victoria and home to many more royals @historicroyalpalaces
And finally - a little further into Kensington you will find a hidden gem @leightonsambournemuseums the home and studio of Victorian artist Lord Frederick Leighton (Adult £14 , child £5)

I had the most wonderful Sunday exploring @marylebonevillage last Sunday while attending the Marylebone Village Summer Festival and annual event organised and funded by The Howard de Walden Estate and supporting the @youngwestminster charity. There were so many fun activities, a little parade, music and lots of delicious food from restaurants in the village. I had lunch @fischerslondon which served classic Viennese dishes like schnitzel and würstchen sausages … finally some delicious desserts (banana fosters and Coupe Berggasse) out on their terrace … the perfect spot to enjoy the festival 🤎

The @koynlondon little red mini on Grosvenor Street in Mayfair has been transformed in anticipation of @samyuktanair ‘s new restaurant KOYN Thai. Catch the cute car now as it’s adorned in giant lotus flowers and Thailand’s national flower the Ratchaphruek 🪷 💛
You can find KOYN Thai in the basement of KOYN Japanese. The new Thai restaurant will be under the helm of @rosechalalai - so expect refined but yet contemporary Thai food. I’m so looking forward to trying it, however in the mean time I got to enjoy the most delicious omakase meal at Koyn Japanese … particularly love the sushi selection , the tuna senbei and the smokey Seabass. - PR Invite
