Collect Experiences. Not Things. :')

Hedone, Chiswick, UK











Hedone was clearly miss ranked as 98th in the 2017 best restaurants in the world. There was absolutely nothing special about this restaurant.  The fish and chip starter was really basic and the meringue dessert clashed with the Riesling wine - biggest fail ever for me during a tasting menu with wine paring. I even verbally requested a copy of the evening menu and was told it was not available. I also subsequently requested the menu via email, but never received a response. Don't waste your time or money.

UPDATE: 2 WEEKS LATER THEY SENT THE MENU:

Fish & Chips - FAIL
Parmesan Flan, Umami jelly, chia seeds
Warm Devon crab, 
shellfish consommé, Granny Smith apple, hazelnut mayonnaise
Warm seasonal vegetables
Isle of Mull hand dived scallop, amontillado cherry foam, San Daniele, white Alba truffle
Roasted breast and leg of squab pigeon, chestnut purée, trompette mushroom, quince
Citrus & Thyme - CLASHED W/ WINE
Vanilla Millefeuille, traditionnal balsamic vinegar of Reggio Emilia
