Jerusalem
Sandstone arches and stone-framed windows establish a worldly tone at Angelica, but the menu is sheer invention. Appetisers marry a medley of cuisines: awaken your taste buds with aioli-drizzled fish shawarma served in a taco, or smoked almond and nectarine salad doused in champagne vinaigrette. Mains borrow bistro classics from across Europe, such as goose breast with beans, hanger steak, and mushroom ravioli.
Service is attentive, and the surrounds are sophisticated; it's an ideal date venue.
