Chiltern Firehouse is a London restaurant focusing on seasonal and healthy eating. With American inspiration on the dishes, decor, and overall accent of the place, this venue makes you feel like you’ve walked into a 1950’s colonial house in the southern United States. The restaurant is part of the five-star Chiltern Firehouse hotel in the Marylebone neighborhood of London. It is a small luxury hotel with cozy rooms resembling the home-stay Forrest Gump’s mom used to run. Modern elements hue over the classic vibe of the place, and the restaurant follows suit on the same design.
The Chiltern Firehouse, both the hotel and restaurant, used to be almost exclusive to Oscar-winning celebrities. Today, it is more accessible but still extremely premier. Inside a building from 1889, you will find a merge of Victorian architecture with modern and vintage furniture and decor, almost resembling a French brasserie. The old firehouse still holds the fireman’s poles and the wall tiles intact. The dining room has black and white tiles on the floors, supporting the light wood furniture and elongated black marble bar top. Burgandy leathered booths surround round tables, and circular lightbulbs dangle from the ceiling with warm lighting. The paneled white walls complement the Victorian environment of the place.
Firstly, have a classic American-style breakfast with eggs and french toast. On the lunch and dinner menu, you can find oysters and pizzas right on top – an excellent way to start a meal. For the starter, you can try the melon soup with basil and fennel or classics like steak and salmon tartare. The mains include house specials like the forty-eight-hour chicken with citrus marinate or the hot-smoked trout salad with fennel, spring greens, apple, and green goddess dressing. The entire menu works to promote healthy eating with fresh flavors and ingredients.

From Michelin Excellence to the Roux Brothers and Pierre Koffmann, Chef Sameer Taneja’s Benares: A Journey Back Home
What a journey this guy’s been on. I had the chance to sit down with Chef Sameer Taneja, the executive chef at Benares in Berkeley Square. You’d expect a Michelin-starred chef with his CV to be all puffed up with self-importance, but not Sameer. He’s not the type to humble brag with his hand earnestly resting on his chest, telling you ‘how grateful and humbled’ he is in that way that makes you cringe. No, […]
