The Best of London

Much has changed in London's restaurant and hotel world since the last edition of Andr Gayot and Maryann Evans's The Best of London was published. Some call the scene vibrant; others see it as volatile. Regardless of individual views, all acknowledge that London is now among the world's leading destinations for gastronomic tastes and trends as well as tourist attractions. As in earlier editions of this classic guide, an expert team of writers and journalists have combed London from one end to the other, sleeping in innumerable hotel rooms, eating in every restaurant of note, visiting establishments small and large, and drinking an unspecified number of bottles of wine. Their research has taken them through the picturesque alleys and great buildings, along with major museums and shopping areas. The result is an uncommonly frank guide with more than 1,700 witty reviews that will help the reader feel, move, and eat like a Londoner.
