Square Meal review of Almeida: Almeida review

Things are on the up at this Islington favourite. A gentle refurb, unveiled in early 2008, features a chic, cool-blue colour scheme while a redesigned bar area lends a sense of relaxed informality. Better still, staff have upped their game, & new head chef Alan Jones (ex-Lucknam Park) brings a refined touch to the kitchen with his modern take on French bourgeois classics. Mussel & saffron soup needed just a touch of black pepper to release the full, fresh flavours of the shellfish, though the saffron-infused velouté was perfect in texture & taste. To follow, pot-au-feu of Landes chicken was an updated version of grand-mere’s cooking, gentle poaching bringing out the vivid flavour of the high-calibre bird, enhanced by delicious celery, leeks & carrot cooked together ‘en pot’. Desserts are a strength: the lacquered sugar topping on a creme brulee concealing a terrific vanilla-infused creme. Excellent coffee & petits fours round things off nicely &, as ever, the pre- & post-theatre menus at £14.50/17.50 for two/three courses are great value.
