Bandol, Chelsea restaurant review | Culture Whisper

Review analysis
food   menu   ambience  

This new Nicoise and Provencal restaurant, named after French region of Bandol, has a similar emphasis to its South Kensington sister, tucked discreetly away on Hollywood Road, that South West London residential no-man's-land.

There's nothing outback, though, about Bandol's cuisine: with a menu designed by Zsolt Ferencz of Scott’s Restaurant, the emphasis here is on fresh, simple ingredients – cooked to utter perfection.

An amuse bouche of Provencal red onion on brioche and dressed with seasonal olives is enough to trigger the senses, transporting us straight to the sunny climes of Southern France – from whence you're free to peruse the rest of Bandol's delectable starters on offer.

No Bandol inspired menu would be complete without a traditional Bouillabaisse, and this Chelsea french restaurant serves theirs with red mullet, gurnard, tiger prawns and mussels: gently steeped in a rich bisque, this is authentic French haute cuisine, served, of course, with a traditional French rouille.

Whilst the restaurant wholly transports you in flavour to the rolling landscapes of the French Riviera, Bandol's interior design channels a more urban vibe: walking past long copper bar you'll see brass lamps hanging from the ceiling, exposed lightbulbs shedding a rich glow on the cuisine, served on zinc tables of two.

Margaux owners to open Provencal restaurant Bandol in Chelsea ...

Back in 2013 a rather interesting wine bar, Margaux opened its doors in Fulham, billing itself as a gastro wine bar.

Fast forward two years and Margaux is now the hangout for the likes of Pippa Middleton & Co and the owners are planning a second venture in Chelsea.

Bandol will feature a menu of Nicoise and Provencal sharing dishes.

Dishes on the menu will include: As you might expect from a restaurant named after a region of France well known for its wine and particularly rose, the wine list will be predominantly French, focusing on the South of France.

For the look and feel of the place, they're aiming to give Chelsea residents a sense of the French riviera with a room filled with olive and dlmentine trees, zinc tables and a living wall to boot.
