I had to have one and it was a full on move of perfection. The top of it was charred like creme brulee should be, and the creme was cold enough to be inside a donut.

This small establishment has a lot to offer beyond donuts, but the donuts are definitely the star of the show. I had the banoffee donut and my sister had the kinder bueno and neither of us regretted our decision. They were scrumptious. The dough was perfect, like a cloud and even though they look really over the top, they are not overly sweet (I don't know how they do that, it's magic, haha). There is nowhere to sit, it is a takeaway spot. They man serving us was very patient as we tried to figure out what we wanted from all the options. He was friendly and gave us some ideas on what to order. We still took an age to decide, but that was ok, because we were swaying to the awesome playlist they sharing though they're speakers.

A dangerous, but utterly fantastic place! - Dangerous, because you run the risk of getting fat…read more Fantastic, because it's like a miniature version of custard heaven. The patisserie/bakery is part of a little Portuguese ghetto - with the Lisboa Delicatessen shop right across from it and a little Portuguese stationary shop right next to it. Don't expect anything posh or fancy - it's a down-to-earth bakery, where real people eat real custards, so to speak. In order to make the best out of this place, I suggest two options: 1) You come here on multiple occasions, as there's so many different things that will tempt your palette. You simply can't eat all of it in one visit, but you simply have to try most of it! 2) You talk to your bosses and persuade them to host a Portuguese Happy Hour - that way you can buy a variety of lots of different pastries and you get to sample a lot! (This was the option that I went for.) I really love this place - but I suggest you come by on a non-weekend day, as the crowds are simply off-putting.

I brought two dozen of America's greatest export and for most of the day, they sat uneaten! A meeting with my peers and colleagues in London, I figured I would bring a treat. A dozen regular and a dozen assorted. Let me tell you, it was a hassle to carry that box on the Circle Line from Paddington to Victoria. Somehow, the boxes managed to survive without casualties and made it to the conference room table. They did eventually get eaten (I had only two all day), but it wasn't until the afternoon coffee break that the consuming hit its stride. By 6:00 PM, they were all gone, but it was a close call. Donuts? Big in America. Not so big in England.

These glazed babies are gorgeous - but I can see a lot of dieters wincing at the thought of the amount of fat and sugar in one of these.

I've been to enough 3-star spots in London where the food looks like a science experiment but tastes like nothing. Thankfully, Brett Graham is still keeping it real. The plating is genuinely stunning--the kind of art where you actually want to stop and take a photo--but the best part is that it's actually delicious. It's food you genuinely enjoy eating, not just something you admire for the technique. The pigeon courses were the absolute standout for me. They serve it in stages, which I loved. You get this perfectly glazed breast that is so tender it's basically like butter, followed by a little "snack" of the leg that has this incredible deep, smoky flavor. It's rare to find a place that treats game with that much respect without overcomplicating it. If you're on the fence, definitely go for the wine pairing. The Sommelier was a total legend--super approachable, no snobbery, and clearly obsessed with what's in the cellar. The pairings were exceptional and honestly made the meal for me. They aren't just pouring the standard labels; they're finding really interesting stuff that makes the earthy notes in the pigeon pop. Price-wise, it's a 3-star Michelin in Notting Hill, so it's going to be a hit to the wallet. It's on par with the other big names in the city, but it felt worth every penny for a special night out. The service is polished, but they don't make you feel like you're sitting in a library--you can actually have a laugh and enjoy yourself. Easily one of the best dining experiences I've had in London. Period. Elite Tip: If they have the signature mushroom tartlet on the menu when you go, don't even think about it--just eat it.
