Fish Fingers 60th Anniversary Menu at One-O-One Restaurant

Sharing is caring!

It’s the humble fish finger’s 60th Birthday! Who knew that this kiddie favourite has been around for that long. The team at One-O-One have designed a Birthday menu just to celebrate this anniversary.

If you have not heard, One-O-One is a the best fish restaurant in London that you have probably never heard of. It is so named because it is housed in the Park Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge. The dining room is decorated in muted tones, widely spaced tables and is a calm atmosphere. The night we were there, the restaurant was quite busy but the biggest thrill of the evening was when a sports legend turned up. Pele was in town for one of his charitable events and he was dining a few tables away from us. It seems he is a regular guest at the hotel and restaurant.

Before you write it off as another bland hotel restaurant, you need to taste the food and meet the talented Chef Pascal behind its menu. It will surprise you. You might not have heard of Chef Pascal as he is not on tele and does not have to do personal promotions but he had a great CV, hailing from a 2 star restaurant in Brussels.

After being blown away by his Game menu at the bar previously, I was really looking forward to seeing what clever combinations he put together for the Fish Finger Menu. He did not disappoint as we had several fish and seafood courses and each one was inventive, beautifully presented and very well executed. With this menu, you can choose to have the wine matching menu too. We started off with a crisp Chablis, selected to match the fish dishes.

The taste of the sea starts when they bring you their sublime seaweed butter. With deep umami flavour, it’s just total indulgence to spread on warm crusty bread. It was not easy to refrain from eating all the bread just to finish this butter.

As a little hint of what’s to come, this little amuse bouche was the lightest prawn toast that is better than that of any London dim sum restaurants. More please.

The first of the many courses, a Yellowfin tuna tartare with oyster and caviar and seaweed potato mash. As you can see, it is pretty as a picture, served on a piece of slate like a piece of art. I did especially like the succulent sea vegetables that were studded on the tuna like little jewels. Fresh and zingy flavours and beautifully plated. Delightful.

The Eclair of lobster boudin is genius, not really a meaty sausage texture but more a mousse but so highly flavoured. I like the idea of serving it in an eclair as the pastry added a nice texture contrast. This dish was further enhanced scallops with summer truffle,  creamed leek and the Sauce Cardinal is the most sublime sauce and possibly the best new discovery ever.

A glass of French Sauvignon was selected to match with the other main fish courses.

The next dish had a bit of an Asian influence, the Salmon Bon Bons. Salmon wrapped in crispy pastry and fried. In the picture you can see a little pipette of soya sauce which is drizzled over the salmon cigar. With this is a smear of wasabi mushy peas, a stunning medley of flavours.

As I love fish and chips, I was most looking forward to this course. The lightly battered Royal king crab and cod had just the right amount of crispiness, served with crispy chips and saffron aioli. I didn’t like the saffron aioli too much but other than that, it was just perfect.

Finally, the last course. eclair of pineapple, coconut and vanilla chantilly with a rum pina colada sorbet. Loved the pineapple and the sorbet and that by itself would have been a great dessert. I thought that another eclair on the menu was unnecessary and it didn’t add to the fruit. This was probably the least favourite of all the courses.

A glass of Monbazillac did wonders to end a very memorable meal.

One-O-One in Knightsbrige does fish really well. The cooking is inventive and the dishes are so beautifully presented. The dining room might seem a bit bland but the service was charming. The charming Romanian waiter was highly knowledgeable about all the dishes, their composition and the wines. Our waitress had just been promoted from the Bar to the Restaurant and she couldn’t have been more helpful, even helping us to take the embarrassing fan picture with Pele. It seems unjust that they are overlooked as one of London’s better fish restaurants, being in a hotel.  Do try it for yourself and join their fan club.

Celebrating #ChineseNewYear @thegantrylondon with a feast of dumplings by @mamachensdumplings and cocktails in their bar with a view. The popup in the lobby is for 3 months, so you gave some time to sample their spicy offerings. Do try the noodles doused in killer chilli oil, that’s heavy with the numbing Sichuan peppercorns.  (Tip: grab a table by the circular windows, best view).

The tasting menu @riwazbucks by @chefatulkochhar is absolutely fab. 7 courses of dishes from different regions of India, with a light touch on slicing, bursting with flavours and do pretty to look at. 
Full review on the blog. 
Way exceeded our expectations for a restaurant in this commuter town. Lucky people of Beaconsfield. 
A really buzzy atmosphere in their restored 18th century Grade 2 listed pub. Exposed beams, elephant wallpaper, an understated,  modern and chic interior.

AD A celebration meal with luscious gunma #wagyubeef strips served with stir-fried glutinous rice or "Loh Mai Fan". The wagyu beef is A5, the highest quality and is cut into 8mm thickness that is usually used for yakiniku. Here, it is just seared on a very hot griddle and glazed with some eel sauce. 
The rice is not your typical fried rice but made with glutinous rice, shitake mushrooms, dried shrimps and wind-dried Chinese sausages. The combination of ingredients gives it a rich umami flavour.

Today is the 15th day of Chinese New Year, also known The lantern festival. It is the end of the new year celebrations and for observing the taboos. For Hokkien people, it is called Chap Goh Meh, more important than the 1st day of the new Year. 
It’s also important day for singles. Historically, this was the only day that unmarried girls were allowed out. The tradition is to throw mandarins into the sea to ensure that you marry well. And all the young men gather on the streets for their only chance to see their potential girlfriends.

In the Christian church this day was known as the 12th day of Christmas. The day Jesus was revealed to the 3 Magi, the 3 Wise Kings who came bearing gifts of frankincense, gold and myrrh.  I’ve not put up too many pics of London’s Xmas lights do here they are. Until next year.
