Pancras loved it! Good

– This younger sibling of grazing pioneer Club Gascon is � much like its clientele � an exercise in studied chic. Backlit steps lead down to a double-height basement dining room bathed in warm tones. The look is all contrast (light & dark, curves & angles, wood & glass) & it�s matched by innovative cooking that balances textures & flavours. Recent highlights have included squid stuffed with bacon & crisp, colourful vegetables, & pan-fried sea bass with a tart, dainty ratatouille. Desserts end triumphantly with profiteroles, ginger ice cream & apricot sauce. Should the carte seem �on the expensive side�, fixed-price lunches are �always good value�. If you�re after privacy or intimacy, ask for one of the booth tables around the edge of the main dining room; alternatively, head for the stylish mezzanine lounge, which allows you to view those grazing below. South-west France features strongly on the wine list.
