Dinner by Heston Blumenthal
Knightsbridge·$$$$
Powdered Duck xxxxxxx (c.1670)
£60.00
Duck xxxxxxx with smoked fennel, apricot, spiced umbles, and raisins.
Tip: The 'umbles' in this dish are offal — a nod to the original recipe. If offal is not your thing, ask the xxxxx what the current preparation involves before ordering.

St James's·$$$$
Crispy Duck Salad
£16.50
A favorite shared plate featuring tender shredded duck and fresh greens.
Tip: It's a very light and elegant way to start. Great for sharing with the table before the heavier mains.

Otto's
Holborn·$$$
Canard à la Presse
£52.00
Roasted duck pressed tableside with its juices to make a rich sauce.
Tip: Book this ahead and sit where you can see the press in action. The ceremony is half the appeal.

Evelyn's Table
Soho·$$$
Duck Breast with Marmalade and Endive
£135.00
Rested duck breast on punchy marmalade raisins with jus and slow-cooked endive.
Tip: The crispy skin is half the experience — don't leave it behind. The contrast between crackling skin and pink flesh is what makes this special.

Noble Rot

Confit Duck with Lentils & Mustard
£20.00
Tender duck leg confit with Puy lentils, cabbage, and grainy mustard.
Tip: This is ideal if you want something hearty but refined. The duck falls apart, the lentils add substance, the mustard lifts it. Perfect winter dish.
