Bart Jr is an outstanding resturant by any measure - the head chef George is a huge talent. The menu is creative and George manages to combine ingredients to create flavours that make you wonder why everyone doesn't cook this way. I love it and will be back.

A pleasant afternoon tea at the Langham however the traditional scones were quite disappointing. They were more like a biscuit than a traditional fluffy scone very small. Service ok but also a bit slow to bring out the afternoons tea!
