I hope you got to visit Rules. My absolute favourite and good portions to boot.
Loved the salt aging fridges.
I feel my arteries hardening at the thought.

Thank you Ian.
No i haven’t visited Rules? Where is it?
The salt ageing fridges were seriously impressive and the meat fantastic!

Hi Anna, it’s in Covent Garden-the oldest restaurant in London (1798). Noted for it’s game and pies.
Even has it’s own estate to furnish game.

Sounds amazing Anna, delicious foods and very well deserved awards, so pleased to see South Africa in the top 50!

Thanks Kate!
Always an inspiration doing these blogs especially with your assistance!

Wow, sounds like an amazing tasting experience Anna! I have been to Gordon Ramsay’s Maze Grill in NYC and it was fantastic..sadly, no Gordon meeting for me though. I can’t wait to hear about the rest of your trip!

Thanks Jill!
So glad you have also been to Maze in NYC. Keep watching as always, as the next chapter of the food safari is up on Saturday!
