Interview: Marco Pierre White on why The English House is not fine dining - SilverKris

"Occupying a traditional shophouse rather than a conventional hotel, this large townhouse-style brasserie by Marco Pierre White blends informal, repeatable dining with refined touches; the walls are covered in iconic 1960s Terry O’Neill photographs and the amusing, intriguing artwork comes from the owner’s private collection. It’s deliberately designed to be approachable rather than a special-occasion fine-dining destination — suitable for a romantic dinner, entertaining clients, or a casual meal with friends. Still in its infancy, the venue acknowledges early teething problems and is expected to evolve over the coming year, with an emphasis on value and building a base of repeat customers rather than relying on expensive tasting-menu visits." - Karen Fong
