Celebrating 50 years of Le Gavroche - here are some of the most popular classic dishes!

The Staff Canteen

In honour of its 50th anniversary, Le Gavroche will be serving a limited-edition ‘Back to the Classics’ menu – a five-course, seasonally changing menu which will include classic Le Gavroche dishes from 1967 and beyond.

Curated by Michel Roux Jr, the menu has been designed to be enjoyed exclusively in the Chef’s Library, Le Gavroche’s intimate private dining room home to Michel’s cookbook collection as well as historic photographs of the restaurant’s famous patrons.

Michel Roux Jr said:  “I am incredibly proud of the restaurant’s 50th anniversary, and the journey it’s taken to get here. My father and uncle opened the restaurant and made it one of London’s legends – to be able to continue that legacy and bring it to this historic landmark is one of the great achievements of my career.”

Here are five of the most popular dishes from over the years at Le Gavroche:

Optional matched wines and a Le Gavroche cocktail are available, including one specially-selected 1967 wine from the restaurant’s renowned cellar for an extra £90pp.
