The Red Fort

I visit the Red Fort frequently and recommend it to colleagues

The food is always consistently good. The starter tasting plate with Salmon, Prawn, Spinach pattie, Chicken and Mushrooms is always beautifully presented and delicious. I often wonder why one needs a main course after the starter feast. Mains are of a similarly high standard - for me the lamb shanks and Duck are stand out dishes. The recently introduced round ball shaped chilli's into the Dhal dish has added enormously to its flavour and to the memories of the dish (thankyou)

The service is sometimes wonderful but seemingly high turnover can result in some variability, both as to staff knowledge and explanation. Do not let them shunt you to the bar downstairs unless you enjoy loud confined spaces and a separate bill

Wine list contains quite a good selection with many complementary to the food

Kai Mayfair

Fabulous food and wonderfully attentive service

Rather than ordering from the menu my preference is to ask floor staff to recommend dishes and to "bring food". At Kai the floor staff understand this sort of request and the food they bring is always wonderful

Duck is sometimes baked and sometimes roast either is wonderful. The wasabi coated prawns served as a starter are exquisite
