  1. The Avenue

    Modern British

    A tasting menu inside a 17th-century country house manor, where the format is a little different: you pick the starter, main, and dessert, but the kitchen controls everything in between. That negotiated structure keeps the cooking intricate without leaving you entirely at the chef's mercy. The 60 acres outside are worth a slow walk before you sit down, which gives you something to do with the anticipation.

    One honor, in evidence:

    The record strongest first

    One number, weighted & current 69

    Tasting menu only. The dishes change too often to put on record.
