The Wolseley is one of those places where everyone should go for brunch or lunch at least once when in London. I’ve been to the have brunch there before but only in their little sun room at the front. This time around Connie managed to snag us a booking for lunch in the main room. I’ve given the description of the interior before so there is no need to bore you with that again. Nothing much had changed from the last visit – the same sumptuous interior, the same la-de-da clientele, the same excellent service (although they weren’t very efficient with the serving of water!)

Heaps of celebrity sightings this time – we were first sat next to Dawn French who was having a meal with her ex Lenny Henry (we later moved to a bigger table but sadly away from the gregarious couple) and also Sir Ahmed Salman Rusdie (author of the Satanic Verses.) I guess this is one of the reasons that you’re not allowed to take photos inside – to stop the stalkerazzi!

Lunch was a very relaxed affair despite the surrounds and again there was no feeling of rushing us out and away from our table. There was a minor boo boo by the restaurant as one of our desserts was forgotten. However the waitress was very apologetic and they were able to produce it very quickly after we asked.
