\"Ai<\/a><\/p>\n

During Restaurant Week, Ling and I had lunch at Ai Fiori<\/a>, Chef Michael White’s one Michelin starred restaurant offering Italian and French cuisine. The lobby space of Langham Place is stunning and pristine, then you slowly make your way up the stairs to Ai Fiori. It seemed like many customers were there for business lunches, but I also saw a few people there in t-shirts and flip flops. I know it’s hot out, but you can do better than when dining at a nice place like this.<\/p>\n

I started with the baby lollo rossa and sucrine salad with manchego cheese, croutons and an aged sherry dressing. Overall, pretty good. I especially enjoyed the manchego cheese. Ling ordered the chilled corn soup with charred corn, calabrian chili, and basil. Lovely presentation. It’s one of those dishes where they pour the soup over the veggies at your table. She mentioned there was a distinct smoky corn flavor.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
