London Dreams

"The man who can dominate a London dinner-table can dominate the world."

Oscar Wilde.








London is a city of romance, bursting with after-dark activities, magical sights and fabulous eateries. The service and food at each of the restaurant here are fit for royalty and will add the required romantic flavor to evening.

 Paris may be known as the city of romance but London is the capital of love.

                                                 Wellington Beef

It is a whole fillet of beef covered in pastry and is similar to the French beef 

encroute. However, to add a pinch of patriotism, the British have renamed it after The Duke of Wellington´s victory over Napoleon in Waterloo in 1815.

French Romance

 "The national characteristics… the restless metaphysical curiosity, the tenderness of good living and the passionate individualism. This is the invisible constant in a place with which the ordinary tourist can get in touch just by sitting quite quietly over a glass of wine in a Paris bistro.” -Lawrence Durrell

Paris a city famous for love and romance. It is famous for its history and people love to spend their lives here with their partners. Food here in Paris is also quite famous all over the world.

The star of French pastries - the Croissant

The croissant is famous for being one of the essential components of breakfast à la française. Golden brown, and with a delicious buttery-tasting dough that melts in your mouth, it is a perfect accompaniment for a good cup of coffee. It is the main staple at every French bakeries Although it’s not a dish, there’s nothing more French than eating a hot, freshly-baked croissant right in the heart of Paris.

Its origins date back to 17th-Century Vienna, Austria. Viennese bakers saved the city by sounding the alert when the Ottoman Army invaded. As an homage, they produced a croissant, whose crescent shape was directly inspired by the emblem on the flag of their former enemies.

 

Spanish Delight

 Food is as integral to Spain as its rich history, with each of Spain's regions home to a range of unique cuisines and flavours.

Each regional speciality is worth trying, and restaurants from different regions bring their local delights to most main cities. Besides the usual tapas, for example olives, Manchego cheese or a plate of Spanish bravas (fried potato with spicy tomato sauce), here is Dish you shouldn't leave without trying.

Paella

This rice-based Valencian dish is well known

 internationally, and comes in many variations that equally vie for attention. The traditional version is a mixture of chicken or rabbit (or both), white and green beans and other vegetables, but mixed seafood is also common, where you will find an array of seafood suprises among the flavoursome rice – calamari, mussels, clams, prawns, scampi or fish, for example. For the adventurous, a black rice

stained by octopus ink is a must try. Fiduea is also tasty, and uses a small curly pasta instead of rice.

Walks of Venice

Venice is an exception to the rule that Europeans eat late– some of the best-value foodie bars and bacaros (the bacaro is a peculiarly Venetian take on the Spanish tapas joint) serve lunch from noon to 1.30pm, dinner from 7pm to around 8.30pm.

Even today, Venice comes alive like a page out of history. The gondolas in the canals, the stony streetscape, and the renaissance architecture are a testament to Venetian Culture and Architecture.

 During a full moon, the beauty of Venice is at its peak. The whole city casts its reflection it the still dark waters. A common tourist would perceive that Venice occupies two planes of existence. It would break their hearts to find they cannot enter the other one. Staring into the city’s shining reflection would throw anyone into a deep, hypnotic fantasy. The only thing that breaks the spell is the aroma of fresh Italian food: The steaming risotto with succulent shellfish, floating in fresh vegetable and herb broth.
