Restaurants
Blakes
Save this restaurant located
in Anoushka Hempel's upmarket
hotel for a special occasion. The
food is a fusion of French and
eastern - highly creative, but at a
cost
(see p144)
.
d
€€€€€
Metz & Co
The views at this prestigious
department store's restaurant
are spectacular; the food less so
(see p99)
.

Nomads
This late-night restaurant is
the ultimate in decadent dining.
Kick off your shoes and lounge on
mattresses while food is served

Inexpensive, informal and

Rakang
Totally authentic Thai; one of
the best of its kind in the city.

Los Pilones
This Mexican cantina is small,

Noa
Canalside chic is
reinvented at this
New York-style
lounge bar, with
champagne, cocktails
and couches to kick
back in. The food is
hip, but sometimes
it misses.

Wagamama
Fast food, slow
service - but you
could do worse for a
quick lunch. Don't
miss the king-size
chess action taking
place on the giant
board outside.
