    Valentine’s Day evening at London’s Boisdale of Belgravia is the perfect place to begin an adventure in amor. Join the fun downstairs with the “From Russia With Love” vodka party with Russian Standard Platnium Vodka and then escape upstairs to indulge in a romantic 5-course feast elegantly prepared by our top Michelin-starred chef.

    Reknowned as Britain’s premier gourmet Scottish restaurant, Boisdale of  Belgravia is delighted to present an exquisite five course menu that our award winning chef , John Burton Race, say was inspired by Aphrodite — the Goddess of love and sexuality — herself. In honor of her delight in all things sensuous, Chef Race has collected sumptuous delicacies from all over the world known to ignite lover’s passions.

    This very special meal starts off with a glass of Boisdale’s premier Cru champagne to prepare your palette for a delicious feast of  guilty pleasures. For the first course, you and your date will be served a tartlet of leeks accompanied by poached quail eggs embellished with a delicate truffle Hollandaise sauce.

    An authentic creole boudin with crab and scallops in a rich crab bisque serves to stimulate the juices and provides as a perfect segue to the main course, a tender sirloin of beef with an oxtail ravioli bound with parmesan and accompanied with a shallot cream and red wine sauce.

    To finish off your sensuous dining experience, sit back and savor a delicate raspberry and champagne jelly with a fresh lemon sorbet while you both languidly sip on a little chocolate pot with a cappuccino sabayon and consider of the other pleasures the evening has left to offer.

    The Boisdale Valentine’s Day 5-course menu is being offered by reservation for £85. Please call 020 7730 6922 for further information and bookings.

    Boisdale will also be hosting a special celebration before diner on Valentine’s evening affectionately called “From Russia with Love” that will feature one of the most celebrated exports  of their fiercely romantic culture — Russian Standard Platinum Vodka.
