1 Hotel
Mayfair, London
Within the stylish, intimate confines of 1 Hotel Mayfair, Dovetale sees lauded chef Tom Sellers’ take on modern European classics play out. Local suppliers feed an accessible menu, with inflections from the UK, Spain, France and beyond. Hearty yet refined starters like warm mushroom tart with rye custard and pâté en croûte with duck liver parfait set the tone. While the main event – perhaps super- savoury black truffle and potato agnolotti with Corra Linn cheese, Josper-flamed English wagyu or John Dory chop – let the flagship ingredients take centre stage. Nothing’s overdone – even the knickerbocker glory trolley manages to hone elegance thanks to the likes of fig ripple ice cream.
