I'm just learning how to do this stuff, please bear with me!

Belgian

Abbaye: 102 Old Brompton Road, South Kensington SW7 3RD

A Belgian pub / restaurant with quite the array of excellent of Belgian beers. The food is not too bad either, especially if you like Moules Frites. The bitterballen are on the meh side but that's easily made up for by the excellent coarse pate.

Spanish

El Blason: 8-9 Blacklands Terrace, Chelsea SW3 2SP

My favourite restaurant in London. Probably the best Spanish food in the UK. It's near the Spanish embassy and is generally loaded with loaded Spaniards which lends a great vibe to the place. On your second visit, you will be considered a regular. Be nice to Carlos and Charlie and you'll likely be rewarded with free alcohol for your troubles. It's not a cheap place (tapas range from £4-8 and paella are about £25 for two) but well worth checking out if you enjoy Spanish food and relaxed but top notch service.
