Fischers is theatrical Fine Dining in a very special location. This is not a venue for the everyday meal, this is for special occasions where making a WOW impression is required.
The food is, obviously, of the highest quality. Excellent ingredients, clean and fresh flavours served with flair & imagination. I'm almost tempted to say that the restaurant is almost made for superlatives - but that would take away from what this place delivers.
We went for the Taste Of Britain taster menu, my wife also had the accompanying wines which, judging from the little slurps I had, certainly adds yet another dimension to the food and I'd recommend paying the extra for it.
The full menu would require far too much detail, although I will submit a photo - my highlights were
The Ravioli of Yukon Gold Potatoes, quail's egg, broad beans & peas
White Peak Lamb, lovage & goats curd emulsion (the scallop was a very close second though)
Chocolate Tree Trunk, lime sorbet, mint & dehydrated chocolate
Also, I have to give a special mention to the cheese trolley - so often restaurants go for wow cheeses and forget the overall combination. This is a trap that Fischers have avoided presenting a well ranged selection that offers plenty of differing choices which still compliment each other. Excellently served by a knowledgable man who took obvious pride in knowing what he presented.
It pays attention to every detail. From the initial welcome, the presentation of every dish & glass, even the coffee & petits-fours. The service easily equals that found in the most exclusive dining locations London has to offer. Although far from cheap, you won't feel cheated in any way.
