Balthazar in London

My girlfriend suggested to have a breakfast at Balthazar, London Covent Garden's sibling of the famous Manhattan 's French brasserie.



This place has definitely great deco and ambience. We went for a breakfast on Saturday morning, despite only having offered 10am slot, the place was still half full when leaving 2 hours later.

Menu has a good variation of different dishes. My scramble eggs were delicious but came with totally burnt toast so asked them to make me a new one. They also forgot to bring my butter, so had to ask for that myself. In my opinion, it is totally overpriced (£8 for scrambled eggs!) and over rated, but I guess you are paying for the atmosphere.

 But, if its good enough for Victoria Beckham, its good enough for me!

I think I will come for either lunch or dinner when the place is livelier and buzzing with action.

Have you been and what is your experience?
