Joe took me here for Valentine's Day this year. We usually don't make a big deal out of this holiday, so it was sweet for him to take me out to a fancy dinner. Joe's boss recommended this and said it was one of the best French restaurants in London. It's not central (rather far west), so you get the 'Chiswick' discount on great French food -- £35 will get you a 3 course meal.
Joe ordered...
Seared loin of tuna with a salad of radish, coriander, soy and sesame
Roast halibut with creamed potatoes, red wine, button onions and lardons
Pear and almond tart with jersey cream
Sandy ordered...
Foie gras and chicken liver parfait with toasted brioche
Daube of pork with soft polenta, crisp pancetta, wild mushrooms and rosemary
Panna cotta of coconut and pineapple with financiers
I loved everything I ordered! The pork was so tender you didn't need a knife to cut it, and the halibut Joe ordered was cooked to perfection! Soft, flavorful, and moist. We didn't love the pear and almond tart (maybe not our thing), so would opt to try the crème brûlée or the chocolate fondant. Enjoy!
