Whether it’s a kiss, some apres ski, haute couture or a double entendre, you like a bit of French.

Here’s some more: originally located in Ludlow, Shropshire, Hibiscus is a two Michelin star restaurant that has received countless plaudits in its seven years in business. Now it has moved to London — opening today for lunch and dinner — and is sure to gain a following that’s just as loyal.

Co-owner (with wife Claire) and head chef, French-born Claude Bosi, trained under Alain Ducasse, and is known for his experimental dishes. A savoury ice cream of foie gras, warm emulsion of brioche and balsamic caramel is the signature starter; or there’s ravioli of langoustines, onion and cinnamon, with Granny Smith salad.

Mains include Hereford suckling pig or sausage roll with autumn salad, followed by cinnamon mille-feuilles with fig ice cream for pudding, and a 700-bin wine list to wash it all down with.

There’s plenty to seduce.

So have a little, or alot, of what you (French) fancy.
