Quo Vadis

26-29 Dean St, Soho, London

This Soho restaurant has everything you could want for a festive gathering – a cosy, buzzing vibe, great cocktails and a superb chef, Jeremy Lee. His food is delicious, British and light enough that you could carry on celebrating through the night (or day – they now serve breakfast). Always filled with stylish people dining on the likes of the superb mackerel and horseradish ‘sandwich’ or perfectly cooked whole grouse, this place just feels special. Don’t wait for an occasion to come; the nutty meringue, topped with cream and richly fruity sauce, is reason enough to visit. AEM. 020 7437 9585, quovadissoho.co.uk
