Ting - Shangri-La (London Bridge)

• A much better choice for dinner with visiting parents or corporate clients who will be overwhelmed by the view
• Sitting up 128 meters looking over London with an amazing view is reason enough to try out the Ting resturant
• My panacotta was one of the best I'd had
• S restaurant that offers European food with an Asian twist
• In keeping with the rest of the hotel TĪNG oozed calm
• Mandarin and coriander was beautiful &ndash
• Plump and earthy scallops perfectly cooked with punchy mandarin striking the perfect balance
• T overwhelmingly cheesy with plenty of robust chorizo giving a rich flavour offset by the langoustine
• The Dark Chocolate with griotte cherries
• S version was unusually short and flat with strawberry compote
• The dress code stated it was smart/casual
• Pastries and yoghurts are scattered throughout the room so no scrum or queues
• The afternoon tea is served on the 35th floor making this the highest afternoon tea in London however the food is some of the worst I have ever come across
• The gluten free sandwiches were soggy and the waitress didn't correctly tell me what the filling were unfortunately they weren't eatable
• I think they provided me with a vegetarian gluten free version for some reason but they were disgusting
• The gluten free scones were dry and overcooked which you can see from the photos
• Unfortunately the normal scones were apparently even dryer then the gluten free scones
• The normal pastries apparently were tasty and were the best part of the afternoon tea
• We both had the Snow Bud Tea which was divine however it took over 30 minutes to arrive and was never replenished during our afternoon tea
• The service at Ting was appalling waiting for 1.5 hours for the afternoon tea to arrive at our table was unacceptable
• To start with tea was ordered and was given a while becore the food arrived
• The chicken sandwiches were amazing and incredibly moorish
• The others were nice but not amazing
• Soft but did not have raisons which was a dissapointment
• It was also near the counter for payment and was not to get the attention of the staff although even though this was constantly needed
• This view doesn't come cheap with a ticket to the viewing platform setting you back nearly £
• Those more savvy have figured out that one way to beat the system is to dine at one of The Shard's fine restaurants
• Settling on an establishment is no easy task
• Tower Bridge and Canary Wharf as you are delighted with an à
• La carte menu of authentic Asian specialties with a European twist
• Our night started with a not so oriental order of pita and hummus but quickly proceeded to mains of nasi goreng and a real personal favourite of mine
• Both were dish were of a high quality
• The dishes were quite generous meaning you still feel you got value for money even though you are paying premium prices (primarily for the view)
• Granted you're not just there for the food and the view in which you dine is spectacular with uninterrupted views of London in all its glory
• I highly recommend doing so by paying a visit to the Ting Lounge you get a meal at a costs not too dissimilar to if you just got viewing platform tickets and the food is pretty great to boot
• Extravagant restaurant with very friendly staff
• Amazing decor of the place with an incredible view over London
• I went there for an anniversary dinner and it was truly a perfect romantic place for the occasion
• The Afternoon Tea is served on the 35th floor so this is most definitely the highest Afternoon Tea you will experience in London
• My gluten free sandwiches were slightly different to normal
• Chicken and anchovies however the only one she got right was the mushroom
• Unfortunately the sandwiches were very soggy and weren&rsquo
• High Speed Elevators (just in Seconds up to the Restaurant) the rest is just Relax and Enjoyable Fine Dining
• I went to ting when it first opened and it was nice but the service wasn't what I expected
• The service was great and we had a lovely view beside the window
• The decoration and amount of detail perfectly capture the aura of the Chinese Culture with an elegant and modern twist
• I got the hand dived scallops topped with yuzu sauce
• The main was not substantial on its own so best to order sides
• The ambience and the setting are definitely beautiful
• Had the lamb loin was not the best meat
• I returned to the highest hotel in Europe to indulge in one of the best Indian meals I&rsquo
• Ting Restaurant is a British Asian fusion restaurant located on the 35th floor of the Shangri La hotel at Shard
• The name Ting is derived from the Chinese word for living room
• As the restaurant is on the 35th floor of the Shard
• You can see Tower Bridge and various other buildings glowing with their night lights on
• I had darjeeling tea and vegetarian nibbles to go along with some champagne
• The sandwiches were good and the mango desert stood out for me
• Food itself was fine but not worth the wait or the
• Everything is forgiven because of the london views
