Ottolenghi makes the best salads in London. They use fresh, seasonal ingredients and the menu is always changing, which is a good sign to me. The vegetable combinations they come up with are creative and usually spot-on. A recent example is roasted jersey royal potatoes, samphire, grilled English asparagus, broad beans, dill, chervil, lemon and pink peppercorns. That may sound like a lot to throw in one salad, but it worked. You could taste each ingredient in the mix, yet no single ingredient overpowered the others.
It's the perfect place to go if you're looking for a light lunch, but expect to pay for this perfection. A combination of four salads on a plate costs £11. You can get them to go in a take-away box and pay by weight, but it soon adds up.
The Ledbury Road location has a communal table in the back with table service, unlike their Kensington location.
