THE KEEPER'S HOUSE 
(ideal for pre theatre and Valentines Day)

The setting is stunning — the historic Keeper's House within the Royal Academy building, the first time in its history that the public have been offered access to this beautiful building.

My good friend and Head Chef Ivan Simeoli, an Italian who has some impressive moves on his CV (including Massimo Bottura's Osteria Francescana, voted the world's 3rd best restaurant in 2013) will be creating an ever changing modern British menu, focusing on seasonality and foraged ingredients; Ivan is definitely an innovator, so you'll find plenty of interesting elements throughout his menu mirroring the innovation that has been at the heart of The Royal Academy from its very inception. 

British ingredients are the  stars in the restaurant; Holicombe venison tartare with rowan berries, parsnip & kale crunch; Flamed leeks with ewe’s milk & Forge Farm squash; Mushroom broth with chestnuts, turnips & Judas Ear; Scottish Borders partridge with hazelnut, black cabbage and crisp pear; Wild Cornish sea bass with razor clams, cannellini & rainbow chard.

And of course my dear friend Dominque is the Master of the House

Open for friends only until 4pm!
