Thinking of visiting MeatMISSION? Find out more about the food, the prices, the service and my verdict!
My first piece of advice if you’re considering visiting MeatMISSION? Don’t go unless a) you’re hungry, and b) you’re prepared to get really messy!
Tucked around the back of one of London’s busiest squares on a Saturday night, is MeatMISSION. It’s not difficult to find – just put your nose in the air and you’ll be led towards the mouth watering smell of burgers frying.
The Artichoke in Amersham is Michelin starred dining, without the Michelin star – or the impossible booking procedure.
**I returned to The Artichoke for dinner more recently for a special anniversary dinner. I’d recommend clicking through to read my latest review here. **
The restaurant sits in the heart of a beautiful old town high street, which is full of luxury delis, old-fashioned pubs and a few standard chain restaurants. Without being pretentious, it is easily the best restaurant in the area.
Serving refined Modern European cuisine, the food is creative, delicious and stunning to look at. On my visit, I sampled the Lunch Tasting Menu – a £38 five course menu. I chose to accompany it with the £18 wine flight.
The meal started with an amuse bouche which was a small spoonful packed full of complex flavours. Roasted salsify, toasted hazelnut soil, chervil emulsion, truffle gel and sweet cicely… all in one delicious mouthful! The freshly baked rolls containing salty ham were also heavenly.
