The Wolseley (London, UNITED KINGDOM) ★★★☆☆

The Wolseley is probably one of the toughest reservations to get in London, especially around afternoon tea and dinner time. Luckily, we managed to get ourselves a table, although it's not the most ideal time of the day (5 pm).

This grand European café was once a motor vehicle showroom and bank hall until it was re-opened in 2003 as a café. Nowadays, the interior still maintains some of the original design from the 1920's such as the marble pillars, arches and staircases which were inspired by Venetian architectural philosophy.

The cuisine being served here was largely international but with some British influence. We had the daily special which was a traditional Borscht soup, a small crayfish salad and a hazelnut dessert.

It was indeed a shame that we were in a rush and thus didn't spend enough quality time here enjoying this beautiful piece of architecture.
