Sometimes there is no better recipe for a Saturday night in London than putting on a slinky dress and slithering into the glamorous dim-lit Asian den of seduction that is Hakkasan Mayfair. The people are beautiful, the vibe is electric and the in-house DJ spins sexy beats as a backdrop to the Cantonese specialities that entertain your palette. Is that a celebrity lurking in the shadows? Maybe. But I'm too busy concentrating on dim sum, crispy Peking duck and sizzling claypots. There are explosions of flavor going on here. Good thing the lighting is so dim, that slinky dress is fitting more snugly on the way out.
