Three Keys and Three Stars: Why The Connaught is the Ultimate Luxury Icon

"Holding Three MICHELIN Stars, Hélène Darroze’s eponymous restaurant at the hotel is a masterful celebration of premium seasonal produce and technical precision, with dishes that draw on her southwest France roots and occasional international flourishes; the tasting menu — which I experienced as a roughly four-hour procession — presents perfectly crafted courses that are at once original and emotional. The kitchen, led by Executive Chef Marco Zampese, excels at signatures such as lobster or scallop with tandoori spices, and the restaurant’s sustained Three-MICHELIN-Star status underlines Darroze’s relentless focus on top-quality ingredients and artistry; together with the hotel it forms the UK’s only combination of a Three-MICHELIN-Star restaurant inside a Three-Key hotel." - The MICHELIN Guide UK Editorial Team
