Birthday celebration London - dinner/ afternoon tea
Discussion
All,
It's the lady friends birthday celebrations next week, and at short notice we both have a day off next week,
My first thought was afternoon tea at the Dorchester as its in the afternoon so we can enjoy being out of the office and I can plan other events in the morning/ lunch or a show afterwards.
However am I missing an opportunity to take her somewhere fantastic for dinner?
What would you do given the short notice, and the desire to take her somewhere worthy of a milestone birthday, possibly with some cachet so it feels like a big deal.
Key note is that she's one of those weird vegetarians (I know I know).
Budget - £150-£200
Much obliged as always

Not sure what the fascination with "a show" seems to be in threads like this. Why not take the (extortionate amount of) money for what is effective a tourist trap (with a few, smaller exceptions), and spend it on a meal/evening to really remember. I did Roux at Parliament Sq at relatively short notice a few weeks' back, and they were very accommodating to dietary needs (gluten) with their tasting menu. Worth giving them a call if you fancy it.
