Set in Knightsbridge, award-winning Bar Boulud, London is a French-inspired bistro and wine bar at Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, under the direction of renowned Lyon-born chef Daniel Boulud. The full à la carte menu, served Monday through Saturday and Sunday evenings, is based on seasonal, rustic French cooking with an array of charcuterie specially prepared onsite, as well as Boulud’s popular American transplants, the “Yankee”, “Piggie” and signature “BB Burger”.
As an excellent option for pre-theatre dining, Bar Boulud offers a £17 two course or £19 three course ‘Bouchon Menu’, changing weekly Monday to Friday, available until 7pm. New to 2015, Bar Boulud is now serving Sunday brunch from 11am to 3.30pm at £39.
A trully neighborhood gem
The menu is fairly long and complex — be sure to read every last corner, as you might miss something delicious (e.g. Boudin Blanc).
