Core by Clare Smyth
Clare Smyth's three-Michelin-star Notting Hill flagship — modern British cooking at the peninsula's ceiling
W11 village register — three-star Core, Ledbury, Portobello pubs
Notting Hill is the W11 rectangle west of Hyde Park — Portobello Road on Saturdays, the pastel terraces, the Westbourne Grove pubs the gezgin knows from a decade of London weekends. The chapter accepts the village-restaurant register the neighbourhood actually does well: Core by Clare Smyth (Michelin three-star), the Ledbury (the chef-restaurant of the moment again), Six Portland Road, Dorian, plus a careful selection of the cafés and pubs that have outlasted the Notting Hill film.
