EAT YOUR WAY AROUND THE WORLD: CAROUSEL GREATEST HITS
Marylebone’s Carousel is known for its unique rotating cast of chefs from around the world. Right now, it’s the menus that are rotating. Lasting a couple of weeks at a time, its ‘Greatest Hits’ packages are collections of its best dishes from the last five years. First up, it’s a Mexican menu, with Asia, the Med and the States all in the queue for the spotlight. You can eat in, get the dishes delivered, or even have a chef come and cook them for you in your own kitchen.
