As I said, the best meal of the year so far. We stayed in one of the rooms too, which was so grand, we breakfasted at Rogan & Co, boiled eggs and porridge for me, and yoghurt and scrambled eggs for Art. The wines were all fantastic and included a Greek and German wine, no French wines which was an interesting change. Rogan is the perfect person to take over at Claridges and I'm excited to see what's going to be on offer there next year.
