This place is in the north of Soho. It’s apparently one of the world’s top 50 restaurants, and thought it had a certain strength to it since seeing this site.

The restaurant is noisy like a club when inside and almost pitch-black. I can’t see what I am eating unless the dish is lit with my iPhone. I didn’t expect it to be like this.

The cuisine was delicious.

They’ll serve beautifully dishes like this in the complete dark. If eaten with a clean and bright interior it may stand out and not be quite as good, even though it may feel more delicious. It is that sort of restaurant.

There’s no doubt that restaurant is interesting, although it is not the right place for those looking for somewhere formal to eat. Endive and Risotto were particularly good.
