Batman’s Gotham comes to London with a fine dining twist

London's trendy Soho district gets a DC Comics-inspired makeover with the addition of Park Row.

Think superheroes... and you probably think of capes, masks, underground layers and epic battles with equally evil super villains, but fine dining not so much.

So when I received an invitation to Park Row, Wonderland restaurants’ DC comic inspired venue in London's trendy Soho district, it's fair to say that my curiosity was piqued... along with my taste buds.

Approaching the venue it seems rather unassuming as far as venues in Soho go, just a beautiful old building.
It's not just any old building though.

It was once part of the Regent Palace, London's largest hotel. Now it's grade 2 listed ballroom, adorned with light fittings and wood panelling dating back to its heyday, has been shaped into something entirely new.
Even having taken in the Wayne Enterprises logo embedded in the flagstones outside, to the library themed lobby, and the vast Batcave inspired black spiral staircase leading down into the main room, it's hard to make an initial guess at what exactly awaits when you pass through the smoky blue lit entrance to the old ballroom.

Immediately you're in a real life Gotham, ala Tim Burton in all its art deco glory, except with less of the dystopian hellscape energy.
