By popular demand, Leadenhall Market's foremost restaurant,Chamberlain's of London, is introducing atasting menuto its     portfolio. The five-course menu is available lunchtime and evenings and offers excellent value at£49.50. It has been created by Chamberlain's award-winning executive chef, Andrew Jones, and is sure to please City-based foodies.

Commenting on its introduction, Andrew Jones says: "The nature of the City is changing; we are finding that our traditional business is being augmented by a growing tourist and leisure trade. Chamberlain's is now regarded as a destination restaurant, as well as being popular with local businesses. Clients have told us that they want us to extend their dining experience with a tasting menu.
This is something we have always offered as a bespoke service to regular customers, but feel the time is right to include it on our main menu.

"The tasting menu offers a great opportunity to try several dishes from our menu in one visit - it comprises smaller portions of dishes on the a la carte menu, and changes on a regular basis. We've kept it to five courses so that clients with limited time can enjoy it in around 90 minutes, fitting in with business lunches. And of course, it can be enjoyed over a longer period in the evening!"

The introductory menu starts withCèpes Galette, followed bySautéed Foie Gras. Next, with a nod to the superb fish available from parent company,Billingsgate fish wholesalerChamberlain and Thelwell, isBaked Paupiette of Lemon Sole & Crab Mousse.Roasted Rose County Fillet Steakfollows, thenCrème Caramel, with baked figs macerated in Marsala.Wine pairing is available for an additional £35. As with all our menus, a full vegetarian alternative menu is available on request.

"Our new tasting menu offers a great opportunity to showcase the skills and techniques of the kitchen by presenting such a well-balanced menu. And, of course, the skill of our front of house team, with service and wine matches. We know it will be popular." Adds director Alessio Bascherini, who runs the front of house side of the business.
