Harrod’s is ridiculous. The chief item of ridiculousness was a toy Hummer petrol car (for children) that had a price tag of a whopping £39,995. Looking at exorbitantly priced goods can make one rather hungry so a spot of lunch was in order.
The Kitchen at Harrod’s, dare I say it, is almost reasonably priced, save for the glasses of soft drink for £4.35. Having only been open a few months, The Kitchen serves a mix of Mexican and American: mini dogs, sliders and tacos, and it makes for a rather tranquil place to dine amidst all of the rather heinous tourist activity.
Although not much of a visual feast (I apologize for the lack of a better photograph, I think I was starved and slightly expired from our walk Bank, Borough, Knightsbridge), the smoked chocolate-chilli beef sliders are morsels of goodness. The chocolate flavour isn’t very strong, but there is a lovely smokiness and the meat is tender and melty, accompanied well by sour cream, lettuce and pickled red onion.
