L'Autre Pied - Menu

I was keen to experience first hand to see what the life of a chef really is like working in a top level professional kitchen. I was lucky enough to have a half day work experience by Andy Mcfadden, executive chef at the Michelin starred L'Autre Pied in Marylebone.

Groupon deals always make me think of restaurants that are in a real need of business. It’s not often you see a Michelin star restaurant with actual good reviews pop up, especially at a bargain of £31 for 7 courses (50% off the original price). Needless to say, I was on it.

There is a kind of excitement that brings expectations whenever I go to a Michelin starred restaurant – and expectations, whether in food or anything else in life, are never helpful. This much I knew. The only question was whether L’Autre Pied would be good on the dance floor.

A little while ago Michael was a real cutie and surprised me with dinner at L’Autre Pied, a one Michelin star restaurant close to Bond Street. Granted, he’d got a good deal through Groupon, but if you can demonstrate “it’s the thought that counts” AND get a good bargain at the same time, you’re just winning in my eyes.

I have been eating at l’autre pied for 3 years and I can definitely see the steady progress of andy’s cooking to make the 1 michelin with l’autre pied one of my favorite restaurants in london. when the upmarket pied a terres chef cooking place was available, it was no surprise for me to see andy to take over the roll and the ordered company manager david moore.

Any emails from Groupon that I receive with food offers are usually condemned to the trash bin immediately, however its not often you find a Michelin starred deal for a 7 course tasting menu for £31. Hence I snapped up the deal for L'Autre Pied, sister restaurant of Pied à Terre, who both hold 1 Michelin star with L'Autre Pied based in Marylebone which makes the deal more remarkable.

there were two things that met me especially about L’Autre pied. the first was definitiw the service. we were cried and cried like royal property, and I really felt killed. there were a few amuse bouches between our curses, and the waiter ensured us for our nutritional restrictions and adapted them accordingly, brought a vegetarian mousse next to the chicken liver – a small but thoughtful note.

living in marylebone, I am happy to have great restaurants near me. l’autre pied is a restaurant that I’ve often passed, but the restaurant’s furnishings always seemed very stiff, so never appealed to me. during the last taste of london I also paid a visit to the l’autre Pied stand and was not impressed by my little taste. but thanks to groupons fine little of 40% outside the tasting menu, my friend and I were able to give it a real try. given my previous visit with the restaurant, I went there with very low expectations to lunch.

Love and Limoncello 4 Foodie Points1. We opted for the summer tasting menu at L'Autre Pied, which was reasonably priced for a Michelin Starred restaurant. Out of the 5 courses I thought 3 were particularly good, including an exceptional dish. My favourite dish was the quail served with bertolli beans. This dish was superb with excellent flavours.2. Unfortunately I didn't feel the dessert quite hit the mark, as the lemon sorbets we were served were rather taut for both our palettes.3. What I absolutely loved about L'Autre Pied is the very relaxed ambience of the restaurant. I often find some Michelin starred restaurants in London stuffy and overbearing. L'Autre Pied...read more
