French flourish |
11-14 Hanover Place Off Long Acre London, London WC2E 9JP +44 20 7379 3444 http://www.cafedesamis.co.uk/ |
The cleanly modern interior at this French brasserie and wine bar would, on first appearance, seem to have less to do with a convivial supper amongst amis, and more to do with business lunches. That said, the wan wooden walls open out onto a multi-coloured mural-covered lane in the summer, for some coveted al fresco treatment. A commendably imaginative menu offers carefully judged combinations such as roast suckling pig with celeriac and apple mash, pancetta, balsamic roasted red onions and sage jus or a creamy black risotto with succulent jumbo prawns. Desserts are deliciously refreshing and the extensively fine wine list combines French bottles with New World varieties. Live jazz on Tuesdays between 7p and 10p adds to the peaceful and relaxing atmosphere in this value for money gem. Review © 2009, Wcities |
