Holding Two MICHELIN Stars, here is proof that even some of London’s very best restaurants serve vegan dishes. As the London outpost of renowned experimental chef Heston Blumenthal, Dinner is one of London’s top places to eat, and fortunately herbivores need not feel left out. The vegan à la carte at this restaurant inside the Three-Key Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park hotel adopts the same approach as the rest of the menus, taking a historic British dish – like salamagundy from the 18th century – and reinventing it for the modern diner.

Anyone for salmagundi, powdered duck, meat fruit or tipsy cake?. No wonder this dining room within the luxe Mandarin Oriental hotel is a favourite with heritage-hungry tourists.
