Duck Liver Ballotine, Damson, and Pistachio
This dish is so special it deserves its own post.
One of John Williams MBE’s kitchen classics is the Duck Liver ballotine, marinated in Port, Sauternes, and Armagnac, wrapped in a Port wine and spice jelly, and served with preserved damson gel and pistachio yogurt.

The restaurant @theritzlondon serves perhaps the best cuisine I’ve eaten to date for a one-Michelin-star restaurant. Except for accolades from a few experienced foodies who’ve dined here and know how good the cooking is, this hotel establishment doesn’t seem to command as much attention these days. That’s a shame because I can’t wait to go back. It’s a place I wouldn’t mind returning to on every... More

🇬🇧 • amazing birthday lunch at @theritzlondon 🌟 with @marcobonsai & @wyahaw . Thank you to the amazing team
on 20 Apr 2018
John Williams' dining room in The Ritz London is astonishing. Almost always full although it is huge. Despite the size the kitchen manages to churn out classic French dishes with a surprising quality. My lunch companion was Andy Hayler, so I am sure the Chefs were trying especially hard.
At one star I feel this places is slightly underrated.
on 13 Feb 2018
Totally classic French cuisine, totally underrated. This place churns out quality food in unbelievable numbers.
An absolute must for me when coming to London.

Fantastic French cuisine in elegant location and with great service.
