And if you thought fine dining was all about presentation then think again, at Dans Le Noir? there’s no judging a book by its cover. It’s an unparalleled sensory experience, forcing you to focus on the taste, smell and texture of each mouthful you eat. The mystery menus mean that you’ll have no idea what you’re tucking into under the cover of darkness, but you’ll find you have plenty of conversation starters just from attempting to identify what’s in each dish. Simply notify the restaurant at the time you make the booking and also remind your waiter when placing your order, and you’ll receive your own allergen-free surprise meal. If you have allergies or intolerances, don’t panic, those with dietary requirements will also be accommodated. You’ll be given a choice of four colour-coded menus: red (meat), blue (fish), green (vegetarian) and white (chef’s special) but the details of the menus at Dans Le Noir? are always kept a mystery. Onto the food: this is after all, a restaurant. See also: 28 Quirky Restaurants In London For A Unique Evening Out Photo: Dans Le Noir? Don’t worry, the toilets are (thankfully) fully-lit!

How do you find your seats/go to the loo/know where your glass is? Well, your blind or partially-sighted waitstaff are your guardian angels while you’re dans le noir.
