Cecconi’s, London, UK

During travel around the world, sometimes you are tempted to go out for breakfast.  Taking a fresh morning air under new sun shining, it should be another good idea to start off your busy day on the road, than starting at gym to sweat 🙂

In the central London, very close to famous street of Old Bond Street, Cecconi’s is there to serve your breakfast, lunch and, no need to say, dinner in a very classic Italian mood.  I.e, omelette is… as it appears as above, very continental style.  But, it is worth to enjoy when in London 😉

The Caxton Grill, St. Ermin’s Hotel, London

When thinking about staying London, there are so many (but not X) factors to choose hotels, or even areas:  where you land, where you mainly visit in London, where you are going out of town.  My typical case is that I am to land at Heathrow, see people in City and Dockland, and leave from Gatwick, or vice versa.  So, staying around Westminster, or to say Victoria, may make sense but I have never done, so St. Ermin’s, where it is renovated early this year, appears some perfect location to hop on / off Gatwick Express late evenings.

As recent renovation, rooms are quite functional, but I recommend you to bring Airport Express to extend your internet access to your iPhone, iPad and laptop computers together.  And… breakfast, where we must argue here, as this is not gadget-driven emichanproduction.com.

The Caxton Grill is the venue of the breakfast buffet, with priced as GBP 19, but you need to top up another GBP 9 for your cheese-and-onion omelette or full English.  Obviously choosing full English is more reasonable to enjoy cuisine, but half-raw juicy omelette is, though not seamless rugby-football shaped, worthwhile to taste.

deVille, the Mandeville Hotel, London

Now I am back in London, and stayed at another hotel in Marylebone, London, The Mandeville.  Hotel itself is authentic, but, you can find its concept of “Devil” which comes from its location name “Man-deville”, like Mad Martini etc.

Its restaurant, The deVille, is fine dining but has same taste of interior, purple logo, suitable for night-hours, but it serves breakfast, not just dinner.  At breakfast, it appears less selection for cold-cut, hams and bakons, baked tomato etc., as those are served on the plate together with egg you choose as above, good idea as you do not have to worry which to pick.  However, omelette is half-folded one, but you can enjoy soft-juicy rare-cooked egg inside.  Enjoy!

Caramel Room, the Berkeley, Knightsbridge, London


Luckily I could stay at one of traditional hotel in London to enjoy their master piece. While I can pick up their cooking ideas seemingly influenced by Japanese cuisine as they used “mashroom”, not as English one, but Shimeji and Shiitake mashrooms, which I got impressed, but still three-folded cooking….
