I always like to try and find a new restaurant to try whenever we venture back over the pond to good ol’ England. This time Bob Bob Ricard was top of my list. It had been for about the last 4 months! I was excited not only to try the Russian inspired British menu it had on offer but also wear the new dress I got for my birthday.
Here you can see the dress better:
Dress // Blazer – Zara (old) similar here // Earrings – Chloe & Isabel
I took the train up to London, looking as elegant as possible (as required), and made my way to Piccadilly Circus.
Bracelet – All Saints (old) similar here
Bob Bob Ricard (BBR) was nestled between side streets right past the Golden Square (a historic square in the heart of soho). We were immediately greeted and sat as we walked in the dimly lit entrance way. Our table was a small booth close to the bar and it, of course, had the signature “Press for Champagne” button. I did end up pressing (cheeky – how can you not?). The interior of this place was ornate with a strong Art Deco theme. One word – Beautiful!
What followed was a great meal with some really tasty cocktails and drinks!
We started with -18 degrees Voht-kah (said in a Russian accent) shots before really taking a good look at the menu.
Apéritifs were ordered – I had a dirty Martini and Corey had a glass of white wine.
When the starters came we dug right in. We over ordered and so there was so much to choose from. Waldorf Salad, Sea bass Ceviche with avocado, oysters, and Truffled Siberian Pelmeni (a Russian inspired dish of dumplings filled with crab and lobster).
For mains I ordered the Lobster mac and Cheese. We then shared the truffled mashed potato and crushed peppered sweet corn.
In between all the deliciousness I pushed the “button” and received a lovely glass of champagne while Corey decided to try the “oyster martini.”
Pudding consisted of the BBR signature Chocolate Glory (to share) and one last cocktail – the passion fruit & Elderflower martini. Sadly the video I took of the Pudding will not load on here but here is what it looks like.
After dinner we headed to London Bridge, over by the Shard, to meet some friends for one last drink at a local pub before taking the last train home!
Overall a great night! Thanks for reading.
Lots of Love,
