To mark the release of the live action Beauty and the Beast film starring Emma Watson, the west London restaurant will be serving a selection of cakes inspired by the French fairy tale. Cream will be poured from Mrs. Potts spout and there's even a chocolate clock tart decorated with Cogsworth's face. On the savoury tier you'll find bite-sized venison pie, cheese soufflé with roscoff onion pissaladiere, and beef ragu and saffron arancini served with lemon crème fraiche. The tea is £35 per person or £45 with Perrier-Jouët, Grand Brut NV Champagne.
