Part of the love I have for the Wolseley Restaurant in the Mayfair district of London comes from my fist dinner there. I was in London for business with a welcome night alone between meetings when I ducked into the Wolseley as a way to escape the rain. I enjoyed a lovely dinner in a cozy room right off of the entrance.
The Wolseley is one of those places that oozes charm in a way that conveys comfort and effortlessness. The building began life as a swanky car dealership in the 1920’s and later became a bank. The charming room in the front used to be the bank manager’s office. Now, a there are a small number of tables that look through windows at the rest of the large two story restaurant. And … there is a sparkling cake table at the center. One of these times I may even order dessert.
