January Box Set
Photo Matthew Donaldson 2021
This is a simple, elegant Box Set Menu, with regional dishes.
Bitter salad leaves with Grumolo, Tardivo, and Radicchio from Treviso, and braised whole artichokes from Rome; Pugliese orecchiette with black olives and cime di rapa; Tuscan potatoes 'al forno'.
And a dense chocolate cake that is pressed down under a stack of plates from The River Cafe
At its centrepiece is a free-range, spatchcocked chicken—marinated in lemon juice, olive oil and winter herbs. The even thickness of the meat lets it thoroughly absorb the marinade, making it quick and easy to cook with a dark, crispy skin and juicy interior. As it is boneless, it’s easy and dramatic to carve at the table.
Elegant and simple.
