Gordon Ramsay is definately the biggest names in the culinary industry. From watching is many shows on TV like Hell's Kitchen, Masterchef, F Word, I finally get to try his specials and his food.

We sat down on a weeknight dinner at 7pm, not many people were in the place, like the place was a little bit more than half full. Lighting was dim created a very romantic environment.

We were served with a choice of sparkling water or still water, we ordered still water and was also given the BSK menu.

The menu was a short simple menu with starters, mains desserts and sides. Nice and easy to read, letters are nice and big, not difficult font to read. 


Shortly after we were served with some french bread and butter.

Bread was delicious, though it wasn't fresh and was reheated, but the texture was soft, and still very hot. I could taste a strong wheat smell in my mouth that blends well with the butter. Which was also good that the butter was not very salty or very strong. 


We wanted to try more mains, therefore we only ordered 1 starter and 2 mains, and since so many people comment that the chicken wings were delicious, we decide to go with that.

The chicken wings were absolutely stunning!!
 the taste was overwhelming (in a good way). The skin of the chicken was glazed with sauce that tasted like buffalo but not spicy, and it had a sour onion taste in the sauce. I have no idea what sauce it was, but it was absolutely delicious. The skin glazed in the sauce was crunchy and the chicken meat was cooked to perfection, very tender and juicy meat. 


As we just finished the chicken wings the main courses came, and they came almost together. As we pre-ordered Gordon Ramsay's so famous Beef Wellington and his Short Rib burgers.


We started off with the Beef Wellington that was just absolutely mind blowing! I had high expectations for this dish and apparantly, it delivered! The Beef Wellington came in a round shape cut into 2 pieces, pink in the middle. The first cut into the pastry had a really good crunch, very flaky and the beef was super soft, it was like cutting through butter. 
 The taste was just super overwhelming!
 the beef just melted in my mouth, as it was just that soft. There was a mushroom paste surrounding the beef and that taste was so strong, but mild enough not to overwhelm the taste of the beef and pastry. Everything binding together just melted all in your mouth, a few chews and it was gone.
Beef was seasoned, cooked to perfection and it had just a pinch of salt. The mushroom paste was really seasoned well, fresh mushrooms and the smell was incredible! 

It was kinda a set, so by ordering the beef wellington we got 2 side dishes, so we picked truffled cauliflower and mac and cheese. I have tried London House and the mac n cheese taste the same, very well seasoned with a thick creamy sauce, macaroni cooked to perfection, not too chewy or over cooked.
And also the other dish of cauliflower, i didn't have that many pieces, but I thought it wasn't that special. The truffle sauce was delicious, the flavour was there, very strong too.
 But it was the cauliflower that wasn't very surprising.

We moved onto the other main that was the Short Rib Burger. Surprisingly, we have read most comments online saying that it was really good and was very tender.
The burger came to us not as impressive as the comments has said. We asked for medium rare but it came like medium.
 The burger bread wasn't really that impressive, burger wasn't seasoned very well, I think it was a little over cooked, otherwise, the bacon and veggies went well together with the sauce, which had a little sour sauce, which was quite good on the appetite. But overall the burger was acceptable, maybe we just had high expectations for it.

On the side I ordered a London Beer which taste a little like guinness beer, but I really liked how they served in an old English cup and it was ice cold.

Overall this restaurant lived up to Gordon Ramsay's name for sure! Though i think it was quite expensive, but for that type of experience i guess it's worth. 
 I will definately return to this restaurant again but probably on special occassions.

Other Info. : It does seem the Beef wellington set is up on Wednesday, I'm not sure for other days but i don't see the Beef Wellington on the menu.
