28° - 50°, 15-17 Marylebone Lane, London W1 | The Independent

Dabbous is a former student of Raymond Blanc; so, too, is Agnar "Aggi" Sverrisson, an Icelandic chef starting to have a profound influence on the capital's food scene.

Small world, London's restaurants, and the Sverrisson formula – Scandinavian ingredients cooked in a very modern way – is making a big impact, not least at 28°-50°.

In the great flowering of Scandinavian cuisine to which the past few years have been witness, Sverrisson and 28°-50° have a proud and prominent place.

28°- 50°, London W1, restaurant review - Telegraph

C and I went on his birthday: I had already taken him to one of those parties where they bus in models by the aggregate limb-total, and they all have a glassy, scary way of speaking, because they’re pretending to know each other.

I then did something I haven’t done since I got my first credit card and was showing off to my dad – I ordered half a lobster, (£16.95), which was cheaper here than burgers in some places.

A lemon tart (£5.75) was exactly the way they teach it in chef school – exceedingly thin and crispy, sweet pastry, with the faintest squidginess at the centre of the bite, such as a domestic kitchen can only dream of, with an excellent, smooth, citric filling.

After a brisk winter walk through the gnarled vines, head up to the new restaurant in a converted barn to sip some Chapel Down Bacchus with smoked salmon and horseradish terrine (£7.50), or try pinot noir with the partridge and chestnuts (£16.50) This candlelit restaurant in what was once a wine merchant’s extends into the old cellar vaults.

Seafood and sémillon are the order of the day, or try venison casserole (£25 for three courses) with one of 40 other wines available by the glass A bright, bustling place to go for tapas such as Serrano ham, fig and cream-cheese crostini (£4), with fizz from the Cornish vineyard Camel Valley.

28-50, Marylebone Lane, London: Restaurant Review

Then just take a look at the wine list, which although rich in attainable cheap-'n'-cheerful bottles, is also dripping with affordable yet also fairly priced and in some cases quite aged wines, with vintages as far back as 1990.

Against the meaty richness of the terrine, the soft creaminess of the salad provided a welcome contrast, although the creamy nature and more importantly the heat of the horseradish was a little awkward when it came to the wine I had chosen.

For a moment, thoughts of the harmonious matching of wine and food went out of the large glass window just behind us, After a considerable delay, sprinkled with the occasional apology for the slow service, our main courses arrived; mine, a lightly pan-fried 28-day-matured onglet, was top class in terms of flavour, the meat dark and richly textured in keeping with the longer aging, and the triple-fried chips requested as a side dish were delightful.

At the end of a long day we forewent pudding and moved straight onto espresso, and then spent half an hour nursing our glasses, half-filled with our choice for the evening: Le D�me (St Emilion) 1999: Opened and decanted on the spot, this wine took an hour or more to open up, and reaffirms for me the importance of decanting older wines, and the difficulties that can be had when ordering such wines when dining out.

Prices: There are two wine lists, the first featuring the staples, red white and ros�, with bottle prices kicking off at �21 per bottle, with a large range of options, and pricing for 75ml tasting pours, 125ml glasses and 250ml carafes.

28-50 Maddox Street Review | Food Drink | Seen in the City

They have a great selection of starters, including four different fish dishes and a spectacular looking seafood platter as well as other classics including smoked ham hock and an heirloom tomato salad.

Being a great fan of lamb I had to go for the Norfolk horn lamb rump with new season garlic, Cornish new potatoes and lamb sauce with an added side dish of cauliflower, parmesan and tahini salad.

It was delivered rare as requested, and the meat had marinated perfectly with the garlic and lamb sauce allowing a unique flavour.

The steak arrived medium-rare and had the béarnaise sauce drizzled over, giving the steak a unique flavour which I had never tasted before.

It was rich and full of flavour, the earthy taste to the wine really stood out without being too rich but still complimenting both mains.

28-50 Fetter Lane Review | London Restaurant Bar Reviews ...

So I headed to 28-50 Fetter Lane, a European restaurant and wine shop – taking my city-working brother with me, for guidance – to see what I have been missing out on.

You enter through a room displaying dozens of bottles of wine and descend into the venue proper, where you are greeted with a contemporary restaurant complete with exposed brickwork and rich wooden furnishings.

The crowd was nearly exclusively middle-aged city workers – being a bit older probably gives you a finer taste for wine, more on that later – and the venue was filled with the soft hum of post-work drinkers and a few groups of women laughing and enjoying dinner.

The terrine was delicious and the sourdough toast a great companion, though the cornichons overpowered the slightly more delicate taste of the terrine a tad, whereas the crab salad was fresh and surprisingly sweet.

My terrine was paired with a Les Petits Clement Merlot 2016 (£2.30), a smooth and gentle wine, which also happened to be my favourite of the night, whereas the crab was met with a Viognier Mas Bahourat 2015 white wine, which matched the crab in both sweetness and taste.

Review Restaurant, Wine Workshop Mayfair, 28-50 Wine and Food ...

I was quite excited to read about it this sister restaurant to existing ones in Fetter Lane and Marylebone Lane – the concept of simple well cooked food paired with an accessible but comprehensive wine list suits my personal taste.

I was offered a glass of St Joseph Domaine Courbis from the Rhone Valley to accompany my food and happily downed the citrusy full bodied white, rather an unusual wine, but utterly delicious.

The Hedonist had a pistachio crème brulee which I believe was paired with a 2008 Nectar de Samos – a Greek sweet wine, while I had poached fig with white chocolate mousse and spiced red wine with a glass of 2009 Breganze Torcolato Maculan, Vespalolo Italy.

Add to that a ‘sampling’ wine list where you can enjoy half measures of top quality wines from £2.50 up to about £8.00 and you have a dream lunch venue for me.

I’ve developed a real taste for matching wine to my food – but, equally I am conscious of not over indulging (at lunch or any other time of the day!)

28°-50° Wine Workshop & Kitchen | Restaurants in Marylebone ...

The Marylebone branch of a high-quality trio of wine bar/restaurants, equally good for food and wine The three outposts of 28°-50° share a similar wine list, a French-inspired menu and a bright, on-the-ball attitude, but there the resemblance ends.

Fetter Lane is a basement with a French country-kitchen vibe, while Marylebone is a shiny new corner conversion, all glass and zinc with wraparound windows and a central bar.

The menu offers predictable platters and pâtés, plus a handful of more involved main courses and grill dishes.

We particularly rate the grilled meats; the unctuously simple ox cheek braised in red wine; the thin and crispy fries; and the notably generous prawn cocktail starter.

The wine list is a thing of joy, offering upwards of 30 varied and delicious wines from on-song suppliers, many of them small producers, plus a changing themed selection.
