their field. They look to seek out new suppliers (“We don't want the same lamb loin or Romagnola pigs as the others. Where is the novelty, otherwise?”). Dishes are always and only centred on the richness of taste, because, “a tomato must taste like tomato, not hay”. To this end, their restaurant is recognised as a destination for gourmands worldwide.
Enoteca Pinchiorri’s six-course menu at Harrods will feature:
- Chestnut mousse, pancetta, pine nuts and rosemary
- Octopus cooked in olive oil with pumpkin cream, coffee pearls and watercress sprouts
- Poached egg with Alba white truffle and Grana Padano cheese fondue
- Fusilli ‘al ferretto’ with artichokes, scampi and liquorice powder
- Rack of lamb topped with garlic and thyme, with polenta and cavolo nero
- Bread, chocolate, oil and salt
The menu is priced at £65 for lunch (an abbreviated version of the menu), or £115 for the tasting menu (£85 and £140 respectively, with matching drinks), with one lunch and two dinner sittings each day. To book a table, call 020 7893 8700 - bookings can be made 10am – 6pm, Monday - Sunday.
