My Kitchen
Mon–Fri 7am–3pm, 6pm–9.30pm, Sat–Sun 8am–3pm, 6pm–9.30pm

Comptoir Libanais
Open daily 8am–8pm
Comptoir Libanais is all about fuss-free and affordable dining. In French it means Lebanese counter and the Chelsea branch is a restaurant-cum-café-cum-delicatessen that is beautifully decorated with a relaxed ambience.

Tucked away next to the Royal Marsden hospital just off the Fulham Road, this French brasserie offers discreet dining of an old fashioned, distinguished kind. Resplendent in clotted cream and blue, there’s … Read more →
