Laduree

I have now been here a couple times – its a lovely tea room on the ground floor of Harrods – full of delicious intricate desserts but also a few mains on offer like steak, omlettes etc. The set menu is around £26 for two courses but there are various supplement charges so not really worth your while (+£6 for a steak…?) As you may expect – food is very expensive but its Harrods dahling! I paid £16.50 for a club sandwich – which was nice but nothing special. Omlettes are on offer which look lovely but also seem overpriced but then i keep kicking myself that i should realise where i am!

Desserts are on a different level given that Laduree is known for its sweets. A huge array of puddings and ice creams – guaranteed to be a hit with kids or those with a sweet decadent tooth…

Its a great place to relax and have a girlie catchup over cake – as an alternative, the Chocolate Cafe is also great and on another floor and offers sandwiches and chocolate for cheaper prices but doesnt have the opulent atmosphere that Laduree has. if you do want more for your money foodwise – i recommend the Mandarin Oriental down the road where you get a bigger selection and slightly (only slightly) more for your money but much tastier savoury items…ill only be back here for pudding!…
