Hakkasan Hanway Place London

Last summer, I reviewed the Hakkasan restaurant located at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami. I absolutely loved their food so it only seemed logical during my recent my week-end in London to have dinner at one of their London locations which, in my case, happened to be the Hanway Place one.

Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised with the fact that the restaurant was almost identical to its sister location in Miami for the setting there is absolutely stunning. I had their Dim-Sum platter which were tender and perfect:

Fine Dining: Hakkasan Restaurant At Fontainebleau Hotel in South Beach - Miami

The famous Fontainebleau Hotel, where both Goldfinger and Scarface were filmed, was recently remodeled and it does seem to be in the same league than a Las Vegas Hotel. I must say that this property does look very sleek and features fabulous restaurants.

As one of those restaurants is the much hyped Hakkasan, we had to try it out. Keep in mind that  this restaurant offers a Miami Spice Menu on certain dates (for more information click here) which is undoubtedly a great value. We were amazed by the setting of the restaurant, its vibe, the service and of course the food. We had the chance to be welcome by the manager (thanks to our friend Mihai at the Delano Hotel) and had a fabulous and perfect dinner there.

Here are some pictures of the food that we had:

Perfect Dim-Sum (the best we had in our lives):

Their signature dish: Peking Duck with Caviar: a very inventive and divine combination. Here is a picture of the caviar:

Peking Duck and Caviar combined in a pancake (my personal advice would be not to use the accompanying sauce and go easy on the cucumbers and scallions):

If it were not for the food, the whole restaurant decor would be worth a visit. So, it does qualify as a must-go place on a trip to Miami!
