Sael

Inspector comments
"Superb cooking that celebrates British heritage."
Overview
In case you were wondering, Sael is named for the Old English word that signifies season, time and occasion. This latest part of Jason Atherton’s ever-increasing culinary empire occupies a dining room with a sophisticated brasserie feel – think green leather and velvet banquettes, silver birch wood panelling and prints by a Cumbrian artist. The food is modern British at its heart, under pinned by stellar ingredients, witness a sublime hand-dived Orkney scallop, timed to perfection, coral crumb on top, and a delicious leek sauce with moist clams. Elsewhere, there’s Wagyu and char siu skewers with calamari, lardo and chimichurri, or a rustic dish of cod cheeks and parsley casserole with smoked bacon.
