While Michel Roux, the father, now takes the time to “inhale the sweet aroma of grapes and write books”, Alain - the son - has brilliantly taken over at the helm of the Waterside Inn. Resolutely creative French cuisine like roasted scallops on sliced baby artichokes, infused with honey, orange and lemon and sprinkled with crab meat; or the salmon en papillote with pine nuts and a star anise sauce. On the terrace, in the shade of a willow tree, or in the inn's cosy rooms, let yourself be soothed by the calm of the River Thames… And if you feel a desire to explore the surrounding area, you can visit Windsor castle or stroll around Savill Garden, one of the finest in England.
