any kitchen than a rare steak, it must be said that the
Hampshire 35-day aged rump (£23) was jolly good.
The Star tends to be liveliest in the first half of the
evening, so if you find yourself detained after racing
by car-park hospitality then you could instead head for
your nightcap round the corner to The Grenadier. This
intimate little gem is still harder to find, at 18 Wilton Row,
SW1X 7NR, but an authentic throwback to the days of
Wellington—and reputedly haunted by the eponymous
subaltern, murdered here after cheating at cards.
