Dean and Selena...

...At Gordon Ramsay's London Bar.
Today we blog live from Gordon Ramsay's restaurant! Yes we are excited. No sign of the tall Scott anywhere in sight... Lol. The restaurant is beautiful, plain, rustic Ramsay style. Dean ordered a Cooper beer that is. 1O dollars and I ordered a diet coke, and it really is Diet Coke, we even saw the little glass bottle it came out of. I thot it was so cute I asked to keep, the smirking waiter said sure. That may be cheapest souvenier we' ve gotten!!! Anyway, we ordered a mini burger for me and a BLT for Dean also a cheese and olive appetizer. Everything was yummy!! We are like little giddy kids in a candy store!! The other cool thing, he actually uses his Royal Dalton dish set, yes I turned it over like a Hallmark card to check :-)
(Over to Dean)
All over a great experience - my BLT was perfect. The sandwich was plated with engineering precision - it seemed like they designed every bite. The cheese in our appetizer, I have never heard of and can't even pronounce, but was great. The appetizer also consisted of two types of olives and it was complimented with a roasted almond and of course, this was was generously topped with Ramsay's favourite, olive oil. Nicely done, Mr. Ramsay. Spot on.
The London Bar is directly adjacent to the restaurant separated by mostly open air except for two pillars that define the border between The London Bar and The London Restaurant. The Restaurant is packed but was empty just over an hour ago.
I have just ordered a dark beer called The Chimay Rouge brewed by Belgian Monks and is a whopping 7 percent alcolhol by volume. Nothing impressive by Canadian standards in terms of alcohol but wow what a taste. This is the red version of the beer, apparently, there is a white version also... An awesome experience at The London Bar....
