London Four Seasons Restaurant - London Hidden Gems

Four Seasons Restaurant London
When in London eating is a big thing.  We were given a list of the London hidden gems that we needed to try and London Four Seasons Restaurant was on that list.  :)

Interior
We visited the Baywater branch and being the second day of Chinese New Year, this London Chinese restaurant was almost fully booked as expected.

Reservations was made for an early 5.30pm dinner.  As it was still early, the restaurant was still quite empty.  We were ushered to a table near the back where the three of us had to squeeze in between two occupied tables and it was very cramped.  Fortunately they accommodated our request to be shifted to another table, albeit with great reluctance.

History of Four Seasons Restaurant

Table setting

Service seemed to be somewhat rough.  As we were seated near the entrance, we witnessed a few incidences where we felt that the service standard could be improved.

Roast duck - yummy

As the restaurant is famous for their duck dishes, we ordered the peking duck, roasted duck, a vegetable dish, fried rice and noodles.  This was a bit overdoing it and not surprising that we could not do justice to the dishes.

Our dishes

The roasted duck was good!  This is what they are known for and if you like duck, this would be a great dish.  Peking duck is the duck skin which is cooked to a crisp and wrapped in a crepe skin with cucumber, spring onion and black sauce.  Felt that the skin was not as crisp as it could be.

Other than that, other dishes were alright and heard that there are other London hidden gems of food outlets that would create a better London eating experience.
