5 Restaurants We’ve Always Wondered About - London - The Infatuation
"Oslo Court is at the base of a Grade II-listed, art deco block of the same name in St. John’s Wood. It’s a nice part of town. Opposite Regent’s Park, a stone’s throw from Primrose Hill. It’s the type of area you might like to retire in and, in the case of Oslo Court’s regulars, many of them did that at least two decades ago. This restaurant is a time machine wrapped in a salmon tablecloth and buried with a bouquet of crudités on top of it. The food is a mish-mash of old-school French technique, overcooked vegetables, and chilled butter but, somehow, it works. Admire the doilies, hold the door open for someone finishing their dinner at 5pm, and embrace the hospitality of Oslo Court’s inimitable, part-of-the-furniture waiter, Neil." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
