Dinner at Jaan
This evening we had dinner at Jaan at the Swissotel The Howard, on the Embankment.
It was one of the best meals we've ever had in London. What an elegant treasure this restaurant is! It's gorgeous, completely non-smoking, amazing cuisine and truly outstanding service. The menu is a little adventurous but they had several things even for a picky eater like me. The photos show my crab starter, duck main, and chocolate dessert. (John's meal was amazing too). The after-dessert was one of the best ever. I usually skip it because I'm too full but the portions were small enough that I could eat everything without feeling like I ate too much.
The last two photos are from our walk home that I thought were neat. A row of phone booths, and a view of the Amphitheatre Restaurant at the Royal Opera House as seen from the end of a little side street.
It was a great evening and Jaan is now on our list of restaurants that we plan to go to often. Yea, that's pink champagne.

Yum. You do love your pink champagne.
That meal looks amazing - I especially like the dessert presentation. What are the little rolled-up things?
I need chocolate now...
