Whitechapel Gallery Cafe

Great food, nice dining room. we had visited this year the dining room of the whitechapel gallery when maria elia was chef and we had a nice meal. it's about michael paul, but we had heard good things so we decided to jump on the east london line and for a Saturday dinner with our old tennis partner esther and bs university hum, the lovely carmen to go over the city. as a dining room, this is one of my favorites. right next to the aldgate East-Rohrstation you reach the restaurant through the gallery entrance and the main room is immediately on the right side with a small private room, seat about ten, on the left side. it is a small intimate...read more

As expected, the cheeses were all fine examples, most about neals yard. I felt that they could have been a bit more generous with instructions, but it was a fight to finish the plate as it was.

Come here if you want an evening meal with cultural envy as concept are museum or gallery cafés often better than in reality. for any south london gallery cafe that offers inexpensive and freshly prepared quality options, there are two or three such as the national gallery cafe or the British museum court restaurant; overpriced, robberies suck desperate jelly from their mozens, the visual art version of the overpriced popcorn get them in the cinema. ramsay protege angela Hartnett has thrown their hat into the ring with this newly renovated matchbox size dining room in the hip east end whitechapel gallery.

Great food, nice dining room. we had visited this year the dining room of the whitechapel gallery when maria elia was chef and we had a nice meal. it is now about michael paul, but we had heard good dinge so that we decided to jump on the east london line and go for a Saturday night with our old tennis partner esther and b’s university hum, the delightful Carmen./ as a dining room, this is one of my favorites. right next to the aldgate East-Rohrstation you reach the restaurant through the gallery entrance and the main room is immediately on the right side with a small private room, seat about ten, on the left side. it is a small intimate room, with a beautiful lighting and well spacious tables that look at a very lively whitechapel high street. I guess it would be in the region of thirty or so in full capacity, but on this particular Saturday it was quite calm, which is strange in view of the quality of food, excellent culinary experience and reasonable prices. the beautiful waitress helena, who showed a great geduld all night with us, has taken our unexpected gast quickly by pushing a few tables together and we decamped on the other side of the room and put us over the order from the well balanced menu that had been released from the vegetarian orientation that it had previously had been when maria in control. However, the menu on Saturday night was changed a lot, with only a few of the dishes left from the sample menu. I took this to a good sign and there were many great dishes under the choice of four appetizers and four main thing to arrange. helena was very helpful and delivered excellent but unobtrusive advice./ I started with the scallops with cauliflower puree and crispy pancetta, which was a classic combination, nicely cooked and presented on a sloping plate. I had a nibble of carmens choice of the hamhock and fois gras terrine with Kohlrabi-Schlaue, which was rich, sturdy and full taste. b was also very satisfied with their pebbles and cardamom marinated smoked salmon./ we have this with the santo isidro white, which was crispy and fragrant on a very reasonable per bottle, which seems to be a refreshing change in the input level wein plus a bottle that seems too often in london. as esther next week after bordeaux went and she thought to take her friends some English wein, we also tried a bottle chapel down flint dry, which was good, but I think they can drink much better French wein on a go.Anyway, we were soon on the nets and my chest of guinea fowl with a made juiras was just perfect. Eating neid could have been the order of the day, because all the other pornstars also looked great and tory boy raving about his soul bass with clam chowder. we had a few sides of carrots and various sweets that also went very well. presentation and execution was again on place.
