Reservation Season: recently added – remarkably different
Reservation season sharpens the appetite — and this week’s new additions more than answer it. Four restaurants, four worlds, all newly added to the club:
SUSHI KANESAKA AT 45 PARK LANE
Mayfair
Omakase Dining
Two counters – one with four seats, the other with nine – hosts the 20-course, chef-led omakase, hidden behind a discreet doorway you might miss entirely. Shinji Kanesaka brings the elegance and showmanship of Tokyo’s exclusive Ginza district to London, where diners can fully appreciate his art up close and personal.
Club: Complimentary glass of sparkling for member and dining party. Saving avg. £46. See details.
Sushi Kanesaka Menu £420pp
ROSI – THE BEAUMONT MAYFAIR
Mayfair
Reimagined British Food
Rosi, which opened in October 25, is the latest offering by chef Lisa Goodwin-Allen, whose Michelin-honed craft makes this compelling. Modern British produce takes centre stage, amplified by tableside theatre and her signature style and technically assured cooking.
Club: Complimentary glass of Champagne when dining from the à la carte menu, all week. Saving avg. £50. See details.
Seasonal Set Menu, two-courses £38pp, three-courses £42pp
À la carte
Sunday lunch, £42pp to £44pp
FIFTY TWO AT RUDDING PARK HOTEL
Harrogate, Yorkshire
Experiential Dining
Set in the grounds of Rudding Park, FIFTY TWO – named after the 52 raised beds in its kitchen garden – occupies five up-cycled shipping containers to deliver an intimate, chef-led tasting experience. Note to try, Chef Adam Degg recently won Best Fine Dining Restaurant at the Yorkshire Post Tourism Awards, with his Brown Butter Custard Tart named AA Dish of the Month.
Club: 20% off total food bill. Avg. saving £54. See details.
One sitting but no printed menu: Six courses, £85pp (available on Wednesday & Sunday), Ten-courses, £125pp (available on Thursday) – £190pp (available on Friday & Saturday)
LIMA
Fitzrovia
Peruvian
Lima is re-energised after chef Diego Recarte joined the brigade in October this year. The restaurant first made history in 2013 with the UK’s first Michelin star for Latin American cuisine. Expect a humming, brilliantly convincing display of produce-led cooking where flavour owns the story.
Club: Complimentary glass of Champagne or Pisco Sour for member and up to four guests dining from the a la carte menu. Avg. saving £28. See details.
À la carte
Lunch and Theatre Dining, one course £19pp, two courses £27pp
