Gallic charm with an unrivalled view |
Covent Garden Piazza The Opera Terrace London, London WC2E 8RF +44 20 7379 0666 http://www.chezgerardcoventgarden.5pm.co.uk/ |
From an absorbing spot over Covent Garden Piazza, take in the mime artists, milling tourists and music-makers below your gilded seat at this fine French restaurant. With a glass of wine in hand, dabble in the offerings of traditional French hors d'oeuvres, like grilled queen scallops with garlic and herb butter followed by succulent grillades such as paillarde de veau and Onglet. (Vegetarians are not so well catered to.) Daylight floods in through the airy conservatory, and the spacious outdoor terrace is complimented by box hedges and heating lamps. Clientele often consist of local office workers dropping by for a reliably good dinner and a chance to watch the world go by. There is a private dining room that can fit 40 people sitting and 70 standing. Review © 2009, Wcities |
