A Romantic Late Night Bite at Buddha Bar

After our enjoying a wonderful day on our fabulous pre-wedding photo shoot, Mr Silver and I felt that romance was in order!
The photo shoot had ended late and we knew just the place for a nocturnal bite. One of our favourite restaurants, Buddha Bar in Knightsbridge.

We’ve visited the Knightsbridge location of this global restaurant franchise a few times and we’re always guaranteed a fabulous night here.
The interior of the bar and restaurant is stunning.
Stair case and buddha
It’s a huge space with the bar at ground level and an extensive basement restaurant.

References to the Buddha abound throughout the venue.

Bar interior
The place is a fusion of lights and sounds, East meets West and unlike any other venue in London.
It reminds me of Buddakan in New York, also a fantastic restaurant in an amazing space, if you ever get a chance to go.

A slightly different look for me as I’d had my make up done for the photo shoot. I have to say I prefer it my usual way! But then again I’ve been in a make up rut for years!!
It was late so we chose to share a few light nibbles.
dim sum

 

Salmon and oregano Shu Mai. I love dim sum and this was totally delicious!!

 

Fish in broth
Steamed red bream with lemongrass broth was the perfect choice for a light dish.

 

chicken and rice
Five spiced barbecued chicken with teriyaki sauce was our dish of the night. The teriyaki sauce wasn’t overly sweet or cloying.

 

Sushi
King crab with prawn tempura and spicy mango sauce. Don’t you love how sushi always looks so chic and elegant in photos?

 

tuna sashimi
If there’s tuna tataki on the menu; I have to have it! The dish was served with a gorgeous spicy yuzu miso and onion salsa.

 

fruit salad
And for a light sweet note; we chose a fruit platter.
Buddha bar is a really fantastic restaurant with a lively atmosphere and stunning decor. The restaurant  is perfect for every occasion; come on a date, with a group and excellent for a late night bite.
