Avenue (Mayfair)

• If the answer is favourable
• The place for this morning of munching was Avenue St James
• As much as I am a skeptic to any nationality with the propensity to supersize their food (ah wait
• The inclination the quantity is paramount to quality) at times I make some exceptions because the Americans are not ones to be ignored when it comes to breakfasts
• In fact it might just be the meal that they are unbeaten at
• We knew we are in good hands when we choose to brunch New Yawk style
• After a little menu scouting I opted for the omelette with thick cut parma ham and a side of charred asparagus
• Upon closer inspection was in fact not an omelette at all
• I missed the fact that it was made with egg whites only and as such absent from the creamy yolk deliciousness that I was hoping
• Especially with the side order of crunchy charred asparagus
• Two hours later the final dregs of green tea were swilled back and we wobbled out of Avenue
• The service is fantastic the staff really do make the experience super friendly and helpful I will be returning
• Contemporary surroundings at Avenue in St James Avenue is a refreshing destination on the London dining scene &ndash
• The restaurant is situated right on St James&rsquo
• We were given a large round table near the back so had a good spot away from the busy bar and were able to see the contemporary artworks hanging out the walls surrounding us
• If you think that Manhattan is the only place to go for bottomless boozy brunches
• More and more venues here in London are now offering this much neglected American institution
• My friends and I went to The Avenue in St James where we rang in the long weekend in style with a free flowing prosecco brunch
• A stunning venue with stunning food
• I had the sea bass which was cooked to perfection and mango parfait for desert which again was lovely and a work of art
• My only bug bare was as we were on a table of 8
• The other week I was walking back to Waterloo from ROSL
• One of my favourite restaurants in London is Quaglino's
• I attended a Canadian food and wine tasting/pairing evening and I was blown away by the delicious food
• The starter was smoked salmon
• Gravy) OMG this dish was incredible
• Brunch here was really nice
• You get 2 courses for 23 pounds which is a starter and a main
• My starter I got the eggs benedict which was nice but when it arrived the hollandsise Sauce looked a bit hard
• My main I got the pancakes and bacon with maple syrup and it was lovely
• Our waiter opened with a friendly &lsquo
• Has some of the best bread in the world
• This Boozy Brunch was only attended by one of the Boozy Bunch (myself) as the rest of the gang had already visited Avenue (Mayfair) some time back
• We had to wait a bit behind a larger group before we were attended to
• I would love to try more of the menu for dinner or even for drinks as the restaurant is located in St James with great location and ambiance as well as great service
• My brunch I tried the Eggs Benedict which is one of my favourites
• On this occasion the muffin for my Eggs Benedict was a little hard which is why I needed to give a 4 rating but other than this everything else was great
