The Fancy Brunch Guide - London - The Infatuation

"Not everyone looks like a work of art at 9am on a Saturday morning, so it’s a good thing that Mount St. is owned by Hauser & Wirth gallery. The chi-chi British restaurant’s glamorous, bacon-heavy (meat, not Francis) brunch experience combines two great weekend activities: an art gallery and a full English. Nothing here is as simple as it seems: scrambled eggs come topped with shaved white truffle and the painting of prawns on the wall is by some bloke called Lucien Freud. Bog-standard eggs benedict and a frothy mimosa, this is not. In fact, Mayfair’s Mount St. even has a special breakfast martini to enjoy in their colourful and kaleidoscopic dining room—and nothing says celebratory brunch like a martini and a sausage sandwich." - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna
