Main restaurant
With its shrub-lined terrace and ever-so-discreet Mayfair mews address, this sombre oasis of civilised grand living has a reputation for eye-wateringly high prices – although the quality of what’s
on offer is unimpeachable. Mighty scallops with Scottish ceps and a dish of veal sweetbreads with black garlic and glazed cabbage both wowed when chef Antonin Bonnet headed up the kitchen, as did
his signature Snix dessert (a gourmet riff on a Snickers bar). Now it’s up to his successor, Arnaud Bignon – whose fresh and original flavour combinations have won him favour at Michelin-starred
restaurants including The Bristol and Spondi, in Athens – to keep this self-assured and successful ship on course, helped by an able kitchen team and a front-of-house staff who are enthusiastic,
always on hand, and in tune with the restaurant’s well-heeled aesthetic.
WINE LIST: Dripping with expensive bottles & rare vintages, The Greenhouse’s list is mind-boggling in size. Yet, for all the nine vintages of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (the 1929 is a
cool £17,500), & amazing selections of first-growth claret (14 vintages of Latour), the line-up of wines from areas like Alsace, the South of France & Australia is very impressive. BEST
BUY WHITE 2008 Zind-Humbrecht, Riesling, Alsace, France, £48. BEST BUY RED 2007 Cedro do Noval, Vinho Regional Duriense, Portugal, £45.
Dripping with
expensive bottles and rare vintages, The Greenhouse’s list is mind-boggling in size – just keeping track of all the wines must be a full-time job. Yet, for all the nine vintages of DRC (the 1929 is
a snip at £17,500), and jaw-dropping selections of first-growth claret (14 vintages of Latour!), the line-up of wines from areas like Alsace, the South of France and Australia really impressed.
