A good experience given the time of the year, restaurant was very busy but the team maintained a good level of service. One small critique on one of the main courses steak was overcooked, but was taken off the final bill.

We visited Ting for their breakfast buffet to celebrate a dear friend's birthday. The staff were excellent as was the food and atmosphere. We tried cuisine from all around the world. From congee to chai tea, paratha to porridge, we were spoilt for choice. There was plenty of choice for the vegetarian in the group too and English and continental breakfast for those wanting something familiar. Our favourite had to be the dim sum which was moreish. My favourite meal of the day is breakfast but the international option made it first class and gave a welcome nod to the multicultural hub that London is. And speaking of London, our table boasted fantastic views of iconic landmarks such as the Sky Garden, Tower Bridge, St Paul's and River Thames. We were planning our next visit before we even left so we look forward to seeing soon.
