Having a delicious lunch at Rules, London's oldest restaurant was a very special experience. However sharing that experience with my British friend, Mike, whom I had not seen for 30 years made the experience perfect.
The food was delicious; the interior was very elegant; and the service was excellent. The restaurant was established in 1798.

It was great catching up with Mike and reminiscing while we enjoyed the savory traditional dishes.
I had:
- Steak & kidney pie £25.50 ($34.17)
- Apple & blackberry crumble with custard £10.50 ($14.07)
- 2023 Andrei Brunei "Est-Ouest" Cotes du Rhone - a decent wine.
I guessed correctly that the pie and the dessert would be enough that a side would be unneccessary.
Rules is located in the Covent Garden area; and is an easy walk from Trafalgar Square.
One can easily make reservations online.
