Milena has an opinion on the wine list, the lighting and the knot of your tie, and she shares all three before the first drink arrives, correctly. Directness is her form of courtesy. It saves time, and it means that when she says she is enjoying herself, you can believe it completely.
She is twenty-five and 175 cm tall, curvy, her black hair worn long and sleek, her brown eyes lined with care. Milena lives in South Kensington and dresses with high-shine glamour: patent heels, a sharp jacket, a lipstick that has clearly been chosen rather than grabbed. She walks into a room as though it owes her a good evening, and usually it pays up.
Behind the glamour sit three grounded habits. She plays tennis hard and without mercy, glazes her own espresso cups at a ceramics studio, and will cross the district for a coffee made by someone who respects the bean. She speaks English fast and clearly, has no interest in false modesty and is excellent company for guests who like a straight answer and can give one back.
Her evening in SW7 starts on the terrace at Ognisko on Prince's Gate, a grand club dining room just off Exhibition Road where the chandeliers are generous and the waiters unflappable. Milena orders decisively, eats with appetite and steers the talk wherever it is most interesting. Afterwards the walk to your hotel takes a few minutes past the museums, lit up and empty.
Milena is based in South Kensington. The rates are published in full; send one message when you know the hour.
