From boujee bhaji to swanky sushi, Mayfair's got luxurious versions of loads of different cuisines - but when only the fanciest falafel and lighter-than-air pitta will do, Lusin should be your first port of call.
Head through the vault-like doors and you'll find a gold-toned space that feels like a cross between a nightclub and an ancient temple. Snag a seat by the window (the people watching in Mayfair is always on point) and order yourself a drink. They do decent cocktails here, but we're all about the Armenian wine - it's seriously sippable. Now it's time to go in on the food, which features staple Armenian dishes with sumptuous twists. The mutabal - a deeply savoury smoked aubergine dip with sesame paste - arrives in a glass dome, unveiled in a cloud of smoke. The manti (tiny meat-stuffed dumplings) are sauced tableside. The honey cake comes on an extra AF plate that's custom-fitted to its shape. It's good fun, and the flavours are pretty divine.
Of course, a Mayfair meal comes with a Mayfair price tag, so come prepared to drop a pretty penny here (lookin' at you, £19 hummus). But for chickpeas this seductively smooth, you're gonna wanna shell out...
