Alex Dilling’s Restaurant at Hotel Cafe Royal Wants Michelin Stars | Eater London

"A forthcoming solo restaurant from a chef obsessed with soigné cooking, due to open in central London later this summer. It is being positioned as a likely Michelin draw, built around top-tier ingredients, French technique, minimalist plating and liberal use of caviar and truffle. The chef returns to the city after residencies abroad and brings experience leading two-Michelin-starred Mayfair kitchens; his signature repertoire — including a memorably jet-black “oeuf noir” glazed with black truffle fumaison and a “Hunter’s” chicken made with a Landes bird, ceps, chicken mousseline, sauce Albufuera and white truffle — is expected to inform the new menu." - James Hansen
