Square Meal review of Drake's Restaurant:
Former Roux Scholarship winner, Steve Drake, has moved just a few miles across the Surrey countryside to open his first restaurant as chef-proprietor. Drake’s Restaurant is situated in Ripley in a beautiful & imposing Georgian building that was formerly home to Michel’s Restaurant. Here Drake continues to cook the same precise, flavoursome food that won a Michelin star at his previous position as head chef at Drake’s on the Pond, in nearby Abinger Hammer. (The Abinger restaurant has retained Drake’s name, although he is no longer involved in the business). In Ripley, diners can enjoy the likes of roasted langoustine with braised beef carpaccio & salmon & truffle mousse as a starter, followed by roasted Gressingham duck breast with braised thigh confit, wild mushroom mousse, seared foie gras & celeriac puree. For pudding a sweet & refreshing blood orange sorbet is the perfect partner to a bitter chocolate tart. Service, led by Steve’s wife Serina, is friendly & efficient.
