Mayfair’s new food sensation: Dovetale
Opened in autumn 2023, the restaurant at the gleaming 1 Hotel Mayfair has easily established itself as one of the epicenters of London gastronomy.
Looking for a safe bet to celebrate the transition to 2024?
The new gastronomic epicenter of the Mayfair district, Dovetale achieves the challenge of tasty cuisine and a relaxed setting.
Forget the hackneyed dishes seen and reviewed again and the ten-course dinners where the ceremonial and the salamalecs end up eclipsing the contents of the plates: brilliantly led by the two-starred chef Tom Sellers, the restaurant of the brand new 1 Hotel Mayfair brilliantly desecrates the clichés linked to high gastronomy.
From breakfast to dinner, including its famous Sunday Roast and its Special Holiday menu, the address with its cosy setting and warm service appeals to everyone, including Vegans who benefit from a dedicated menu.
Raw food , do you want some? Here's a preamble ( Carlingford Oysters with tabasco and lemon, Orkney scallops, Cornish crab with fennel and citrus fruits without forgetting the Wagyu carpaccio "Harry's Bar"), mushroom tart or roast chicken minestrone give way to surprising sweet and savory pairings (the excellent artichoke with fresh pear and Vacherin cheese, the unmissable Veronique sole with cauliflower and grapes, without forgetting the exquisite Agnolotti with ricotta, pumpkin and caramelized butter) .
The icing on the cake? The dessert menu, a poem for sweet palates in itself.
From Panettone to chocolate cream and soufflé, it's hard to make a choice.
The ideal third half? A detour to the adjacent Dover Yard bar, with its soft sofas and particularly sophisticated cocktail menu, is the ideal place to debrief your end-of-year vacation.
