The team behind Michelin-starred Hong Kong Restaurant, Serge et le Phoque, have now moved to London. Headed up by duo Charles Pelletier and Frédéric Peneau, the restaurant opened a London outpost within The Mandrake, a new independent hotel in Fitzrovia.
Serge et le Phoque takes a radical yet refined approach to dining, using modern French techniques with produce carefully sourced locally as well as further afield from suppliers that the team have been working with closely in recent months. The product-led offering is driven by the seasons, showcasing the kitchen’s cuisine ‘à la minute’ cooking style.
The restaurant’s breakfast, lunch and dinner menus change daily due to the team’s savoir faire philosophy. A lunch time prix fixe menu offers diners the choice of 2 courses for £22 or 3 courses for £27. The evening à la carte menu, focuses on sharing-style dining, which is also accompanied by a chef’s degustation menu, is a true reflection of Fred’s inimitable cooking style with dishes that surprise and challenge as much as delight guests. Example dishes include:
Monkfish with cecina, radicchio & bottarga
‘Chou Farci’ cabbage with ceps, trompettes and grouse
Lamb with pomme puree and smoked eel
The wine list has been carefully curated by ex-Clove Club sommelier Bert Blaize who spent months meeting with wine makers across Europe that all share the same commitment to sustainability. The Serge Bar serves a short list of aperitifs and digestifs as well as well as 20 different wines served by the glass.
