Picture, Marylebone, restaurant review: A tried and tested team ...

In an unassuming location on Marylebone’s New Cavendish Street, which is known more for its chic village atmosphere and one-off shops than its restaurants, is the latest venture from former Wild Honey and Arbutus group chefs, Alan Christie and Colin Kelly, following in the footsteps of its sister restaurant of the same name on Great Portland Street.

The a la carte menu features three dishes in as many sections; Tom suggests diners would choose one from each section, priced between £9 and £12.

I chose the well-crafted six-course tasting menu, which takes a dish from each of the a la carte sections.

The only negative of the six courses was the second dish – charred spiced cauliflower, peas, shallots and capers, which as I write this now, I could happily eat.

The stone bass was surrounded by a well-matched combination of strong green olives sliced, charlotte potatoes and green beans and the 28-day-aged skirt of beef, expertly cooked, with an accompanying silky red wine sauce textured with a generous sprinkling of rich bone marrow crumbs, and finished up the main dishes.

Picture Marylebone Blogger Review Then came Picture Marylebone earlier this month.

Picture Marylebone Blogger Review Ambience and décor: Being on New Cavendish Street, where most restaurants have fancy terraces complete with potted plants, colourful awning and flashy furniture, Picture is the total opposite: the façade, tables, chairs and signage are all charcoal grey.

Service was smooth throughout, which is a testament to the team’s professionalism, especially during their first week.ure Marylebone Blogger Review We’d already decided on the tasting menu before we sat down, so only major decision was the wine (Altosur, Malbec,  Tupungato, 2014).

Picture, Marylebone – tried and tasted | London Evening Standard

It was three years ago that a talented trio of foodies launched the original Picture restaurant on Great Portland Street.

Now the boys are back for act two, with a second Picture restaurant on New Cavendish Street serving up more of the same.

What pulls all the dishes together — and gives Picture its own winning style — is the combination of simple flavours it carefully matches on the plate.

The atmosphere isn’t anywhere near as upbeat as the food, but combined with slick, friendly service and an exciting well-priced wine list it still makes for a stellar dining experience.

Final flavour: The restaurant is a blank canvas, but there is plenty of artistry in the kitchen.

Restaurant Review – Picture, Marylebone

Joining local trendy restaurants such as Jikoni, Yosma and Blandford Comptoir, Picture was unsurprisingly filled with turtle-neck sporting gents possibly ending a long day of trekking between art galleries, now journeying through the six course tasting menu, just like ourselves.

Next, a dish focussing on beetroot seemed like a standard take on the vegetarian-friendly, super-healthy dish that so many high end restaurants are churning out at present, while a dish of slow-cooked pork was everything I’d dreamed of.

A dish showcasing haunch of venison, my personal favourite cut (from the back legs of the deer) was undoubtedly the best thing that we at at Picture.

From the tasting menu, this neighbourhood restaurant’s dishes are all brimming with culinary accomplishment and presented with picture perfect precision.

Picture Marylebone can be found at 19 New Cavendish Street, London, W1G 9TZ.

The interiors at Picture – an unpretentious, small-plates-serving dining room in Marylebone – may be depressingly grey, but the lack of colour on the walls is remedied by the beautiful presentation of the dishes (if not the ambition).

Prices tot up with the a la carte as well; instead, opt for the £40 six-course tasting menu for a spread of seasonal dishes.

With such high-quality ingredients and evident skill in the kitchen (plus super-friendly staff), I wonder whether Picture could afford to take more risks.

Saying that, by 9pm the dining room was beginning to pack out – proof that reliable, high-quality cooking will always draw a crowd.

Risks?
