Not everybody wants spaghetti, blackboards and rustic vibes to really feel romantic, as a result of not everybody was raised on a food regimen of Nora Ephron, Richard Curtis and Disney. At BiBi in Mayfair, chef Chet Sharma provides Michelin-starred Indian delicacies impressed by his grandmothers, his travels round India and his Cambridge physics diploma, and it’s one of the romantic meals I’ve ever had. The area is intimate — not in an property agent sense, however as a result of the design makes each desk really feel like the one ones in there. The wealthy purple kitchen counter is a enjoyable place to be, however the eating room provides equal, if quieter, pleasures in observing the summary paintings, and ivory black stone flooring. As for the meals, I defy anybody to eat Sharma’s creamy Lahori hen or squidgy, spice-encrusted Buffalo milk paneer with fenugreek masala with out falling in love over again — with him, if not their present associate. His marriage of basic consolation and Michelin-lead cooking, mixed with artistic, well-crafted cocktails, is likely one of the happiest round.
