🇬🇧 Classic French Romance Spot with Stellar Value
Most floral restaurants are just photo ops—but Clos Maggiore actually delivers on taste too! 🌸📸 (Confession: I rarely revisit insta-famous spots, but this one earned it.) 🍽 Unexpected MVP: Their tasting menu (usually skeptical, but wow!)—next time I’m back for à la carte! 4 Courses + Dessert: 🐚 Scallop Silky with golden raisins, coconut foam, and lemongrass—light yet luxe. No aftertaste guilt! 🐮 Beef Tartare Buttery texture with chive confetti—art on a plate 🎨 (and in your mouth). 🐟 Cod Fillet Crispy golden sear, flaky inside—simple but perfectly executed. 🐑 Lamb Rack Medium-rare juiciness, though slightly oversized. The minty jus saved the day! 🍧 Strawberry Ice Cream Creamy with fresh berry swirl—refreshing finale. 🌟 Re-Order List: Scallop + tartare = dream team. Seafood mains over meat next time! 💰 Damage: £100-120pp (with wine—shockingly fair for the quality). 📍 Clos Maggiore 33 King St, London WC2E 8JD ✨ Vibe: Fairytale conservatory (flowers everywhere) 💐 Cozy enough for dates, spacious for groups Old-school service with zero pretension 🔥 Pro Tip: Book the glass-ceiling nook for max magic! #MichelinWorthy #FrenchCuisine #DateNightGoals #HiddenGem #LondonEats #WeekendIndulgence
