Whitcomb's Christmas Day - Londoner
Christmas
Outside, Leicester Square sits still for once, streets empty on the only day of the year London stops moving. Inside, in the warm glow of Whitcomb's, the day unfolds course by course, a five-course menu running across two sittings, lunch and dinner. A truffle and Parmesan gougère sets things in motion, followed by a butter-poached prawn and lobster raviolo, before a roasted turbot takes the centre of the table. Last of all comes the Whitcomb's Chocolate Royale, finished with 24-carat gold and a warm chocolate sauce poured tableside.
Younger guests are just as well looked after, with a dedicated children's menu running alongside the main event, three courses, from a simple homemade pasta to a molten chocolate fondant to finish.
