A Trove of High-end Cuisine: Start Collecting Your Michelin Stars Right Here

London is the city with the highest density of Michelin restaurants in the world. . Although there are only four three-star Michelin restaurants, many two- star Michelin restaurants are distributed here that actually have great potential. Many one-star Michelin restaurants also boast a good environment and good prices. So it's a big misunderstanding that British people are not good at cooking.

Gordon Ramsay opened in 1998 is the namesake restaurant of Gordon Ramsay, one of Britain's top celebrity chefs. It is the first and most famous of his eight restaurants. The restaurant was awarded three Michelin stars in 2001, making it one of the most famous Michelin restaurants in London.

The restaurant is not big, and is very low key on the roadside, without excessive and exaggerated decoration, giving consumers a feeling of intimacy. It can only accommodate 45 people, so make sure to book in advance. The restaurant offers exquisite authentic French cuisine at a relatively high price, but both the service and the well-prepared food will provide you with an unforgettable dining experience.

The three-star Michelin restaurant The Fat Duck is the No.1 restaurant in the UK. It is located in Bray, a small town just on the west outskirts of London. Heston Blumenthal, owner of the restaurant, is a pioneer of British molecular cuisine. The restaurant has been declared as the best restaurant in the world by a panel of 600 international chefs and critics.

The bar area is decorated with recipes from ancient British cookbooks in the 16th century, giving the restaurant a more rural feel. It is worth mentioning that the 14 dishes of different styles can be called the treasure of the restaurant! There are so limited seats in the restaurant that reservations must be made at least three months in advance.

Waterside Inn is arguably the oldest three-star Michelin restaurant in the UK. The restaurant is located in Bray Town, not far from another three-star Michelin restaurant Fat Duck. There is also a British-style family inn B&B here, but with unexpectedly high price.

With unremarkable looks, the restaurant is about the size of a typical small bar, with only ten tables. The chef Alain Roux is the only chef from three-star Michelin restaurants that has been enrolled into the dessert society. Therefore, his pastry is highly anticipated. Advance reservations are required here.

In addition to the delicious food, the great location is also one of the selling points of the two-star Michelin restaurant. The restaurant is located in Notting Hill in northwest London with lots of tourists. The entrance to the restaurant is an unusual glass door that is only slightly wider than one person, and has an inconspicuous signature "The Ledbury" above it, without any more words or logo. It's easy to miss it if you are not making a special trip here. The restaurant, specializing in French cuisine, ranked No. 10 in Restaurant magazine's world restaurants ranking, and replaced Le Gavroche as the best London restaurant in Harden's Restaurant Guide. So many people have been attracted here. For those who want to taste the culinary skills of the two-star Michelin chef, advance reservation is a must.
