Alain Ducasse is the most successful restaurateur in the world, with fifteen more Michelin stars worldwide than Gordon Ramsay. His first London operation, earning him two of those stars, is a hyper-modern 80-seat dining room, fortunately tucked well away from the gaudy monstrosity that is the Dorchester's grill room. The menus are distinctively French, aiming neither for molecular wizardry, nor Ramsay's faux-simplicity, but for an imaginative mixture of old and new techniques, and a total dedication to the craftsmanship of cheffing. The current Parisian love affair with all things Japanese is also apparent. This is one of the most expensive restaurants in London, but if you can afford to pay £100+ a head, then you're guaranteed a pretty spectacular meal.
