This top-notch French restaurant has been given excellent reviews by its many fans, and it's easy to see why. The B rasserie  occupies an incredibly striking space in the elegant, five-star Park Plaza Westminster Bridge Hotel. The menu is elegant and well conceived. For starters, I tried the Lobster Cobb salad , which was surprisingly large - no nouvelle skimping here - and featured succulent bites of lobster and crisp bacon. My partner's delicate Thai coconut soup was poured over  Brasserie Joël's signature cocotte (baked) dishes, before choosing the tournedos rossini. This superb construction of fillet steak and foie gras came in a rich truffle sauce and each bite melted smoothly into a symphony of flavours. I tried an incredible, creamy potatoes dauphinoise on the side, completing a highly indulgent meal. My partner loved her sea bass risotto, with the flesh of the fish melting away from its deliciously crunchy, salty skin.
