The Cinnamon Club: Indian Fine Dining Restaurant London
Set in the historic Grade II listed former Westminster Library, The Cinnamon Club is an institution in the world of Indian fine dining.
The original modern Indian restaurant in London, The Cinnamon Club has a long history of serving innovative and creative Indian cuisine in a magnificently majestic setting.
Re-opening in 2015 following a major refurbishment, Executive Chef Vivek Singh and Head Chef Rakesh Ravindran Nair have developed a stunning new menu that combines The Cinnamon Club’s signatures with new dishes and celebratory platters.
A new chapter for the Club is about to be written.

Restaurant Review: Town House – Kensington | The Soulmates Blog
food menu
The ground floor is a maze of unique rooms with expertly coordinated decor, owned by the hotel’s on site restaurant, Town House.
The Town House library is a marriage of contemporary style and cosiness – an array of modern and classic books adourn the walls of the main dining room.
The set menu includes four choices for main courses of seasonal produce: slow roast sea trout, beef, risotto and lamb shoulder.
My date and I had the roast beef and risotto: the meat was tender, served with brocolli, lentils, almonds, boulangère potatoes and garnished with edible flowers – a beautiful way for the restaurant to put their stamp on the menu.
The experience of the Town House’s Sunday Menu takes you through several stages of dining from the buffet, main course and sharing, challenging guests’ experience of what a 3-course meal can be.
The London Library
food busyness reservations
Started by Thomas Carlyle in 1841—he was peeved at not being able to borrow books from the British Library—it has grown into the largest private lending library in the world.
The one million books in the library are available to all members at all times.
If you borrow an old book from the library, you may go to bed with a volume that Dickens once read by candle light in Doughty Street, or that Eliot read as he walked over the London Bridge.
The dusty fellow next to you might be a proto Nobel-winning author (as, years ago, was Elias Canetti, who spent many unrecognized years in the library before his call to Stockholm), and the almost certain knowledge that the person in the next carrel cares deeply about words and ideas and, best of all, has a book to tell you about, in a whisper.
The book is, at the time of writing, not yet published in the UK and was not in the library’s collection.
