Skylon

Undoubtedly among London's ideally located restaurants, Skylon is set within the Royal Festival Venue (it's their flagship restaurant) and offers a stunning panorama of London's skyline with floor to ceiling windows neglecting the lights of the South Financial institution and the glittering river Thames. The restaurant echoes the design of the reconditioned Royal Festival Venue with extra contemporary touches including sophisticated chandeliers and bronze, walnut and slate areas. The meals compares to the stunning setup-- Exec Chef Helena Puolakka has actually created a contemporary European menu with British influences. Meals include Denham estate venison with carpaccio and Cabernet Sauvignon clothing, turbot with castellucio lentils, pancetta and thyme dressing, and dark delicious chocolate pudding with mandarin sorbet.

Sweeping windows make certain that you get your money's worth of the striking riverside panoramas that are among the large marketing points at this flagship Southbank venue from D&D London. Visitors are also drawn by the vivid ambience, the 'attentive & theatrical' solution from smart-suited team, & the super-streamlined, retro style-- all light, air & glass solidified with elegant materials. The kitchen knows how you can extract specific flavors from top-drawer components, whether it's wild-garlic soup with duck-egg mayonnaise on grilled brioche ('served with particular style') or rump of lamb with caramelised merguez sausages, griotte cherry marmalade & parmesan polenta. Treats are tempting, whimsical productions such as milk chocolate with soft sugar, poached pear & spiced sorbet, or 'sweet sushi' made with unique fruit & vanilla-scented rice, served with quirky bread 'chopsticks'. The food is matched by an intelligently chosen wine list.
