Bacchanalia

Bacchanalia is a Greek word that means a gathering of people who are eating, drinking and having a good time, and the eponymous restaurant offers exactly that. It serves modern English dishes with the Mediterranean twist in a peaceful location making it a perfect spot for business people and shoppers alike. The ground floor is largely a bar with bartenders conjuring various cocktails and serving beer while the second floor is a chic restaurant with an open kitchen.

Start with goat's cheese tart, warm goat's cheese and red onion marmalade in a filo pastry case served with mixed salad leaves. For main course order roasted wood pigeon resting on creamed cabbage, peas and bacon with wilted baby gem lettuce and roasting jus. Cap the meal with a sticky toffee trifle, warm pieces of sticky toffee sponge with butterscotch sauce, layered with vanilla ice cream and finished with Chantilly cream.
