Here is a list of the restaurants that London’s top chefs frequent on their nights off.
Suggested by two-starred Alex Dilling of Hotel Cafe Royal on Regent Street, Alex Dilling: “Very good spaghetti at a great price point. All main courses cost less than £20. The man behind it is Michelin-starred chef Phil Howard, and even in these informal dishes, his expertise of cooking shines through. I adore Bancone pasta as well.
Recommendation from Sameer Taneja, executive chef at Mayfair’s one-starred Indian restaurant Benares: “My favorite place to enjoy wonderful meat and vegetable wraps with a Kolkata twist.
I have great recollections of this little eatery because my wife and I have frequented it since before our children were born. Enjoying a bottle of beer, some wonderful spicy wraps, and some classic Bollywood music is always a treat.
Suggested by one-star Pavyllon at the Four Seasons Hotel, Benjamin Ferra Y Castell says: “They provide excellent Italian coffee with real goods from several Italian areas. They serve a variety of sandwiches, and their burrata is particularly good. They serve authentic coffee prepared the proper way.
