B&L now has five locations in London and we went to the one in Soho. The decor is very American, wooden panel and red diner style couch. The place is pretty big but quickly filled up due to its popularity. We went there for lunch. The menu is simple, burger, whole lobster or lobster roll, all of the same price. We both opted for broiled lobster with lemon and garlic butter.
Wow, wow, wow, we are hugely impressed by what we got. The lobster was of a good size, sweet and succulent, and tasted very fresh with just a faint smokiness. The lemon and garlic butter is to die for. I scrape clean the serving bowl! The thinly cut chips and a bowl of salad dressed in reduced balsamic vinegar (I think) nicely complemented the lobster. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will go back next time!
After that, we went to Maison Bertaux for dessertS (yes, in plural). Not that we were still hungry, but dessert is for another stomach, right? Wink. Have a good weekend, everyone.
