Ma Goa (242-244 Upper Richmond Road, London, SW15 6TG)

Quite simply one of the best Indians in town. Way above a 'curry house' yet without the pretentions of a posh Indian. Whilst I adhore a posh Indian like Amaya there are times when you just want an exceptional authentic Indian curry with a pint of larger. That is not to say that the cooking is simple and indeed there are regularly changing specials but it hits the spot well. Bright light decor makes it a top place to unwind after work. Certainly a hit with the Putney crowd.

Zuma (5 Raphael Street, London, London, SW7 1DL)

Editor's pick

My favourite restaurant in London which ticks all the boxes – great, innovative modern Japanese food, good service, beautiful people and an atmosphere that reminds you that 'life is worth living'.

It is both male/female friendly and business/pleasure friendly. Due to the 'Norman Foster' style interior the room can be a bit noisy for the older generation.

Start with a cocktail at the bar, a bit pricy at £9.50 each, but worth the money to soak up the atmosphere of the top end of the London mating game, then retire to your table. Never miss the fillet beef and try as much as possible. Excellent female sommelier.

Alloro (19-20 Dover Street, London, London, W1S 4LU)

Alloro never disappoints – my favourite Italian in town. This is a superb place for a client meeting combining excellent food, a buzzy atmosphere which is not stuffy. The only down side is that the wine list is a bit pricy. My tip is to book a table in the bar area for a cheaper/quicker meeting – I alway have the meat selection (one portion is enough for two) and then the cray fish/tomato pasta, finished with an expresso – a winner every time and good value.

Hakkasan (8 Hanway Place, London, London, W1T 1HD)

First went when it opened and thought that it was fantastic. It took Chinese food up several gears and took Chinese into the fashion world. Since then the prices have gone up but it still remains a top destination. Having said that I went the othe day and thought it had gone down as I choose badly but it goes to show you need to choose well. The dishs were too similiar and the waiter did not advise me well.
It also has a superb long bar for a cocktails.

Hix at The Albemarle (Brown's Hotel, 33 Albemarle Street, London, London, W1S 4BP)

Good food and execution but very much what you would expect at a top London hotel – good for your more formal clients. Tables well spaced so good for meetings.
