The Swan continues serenely on its way, taking full advantage of the prime riverside location & pleasing visitors with a menu that tips its hat to most current fashions but is based firmly on sound technique. Simple invention is not scorned here: the kitchen is happy to partner wild garlic risotto with confit frogs’ legs persillade, or send out roasted monkfish tail with a melange of chorizo, courgette, mascarpone ragout & chorizo beignets. There are also classic touches – cannette of duck with creamed savoy cabbage, pommes sarladaise, baby beetroot & foie gras, for example. Traditionally based desserts include lemon tart with buttermilk sorbet & hot chocolate fondant with white chocolate ice cream. Less intricate dishes & light meals are served in the Cygnet Bar & on the Terrace.
