Launched by the team behind the Goodman Steak restaurants, Burger & Lobster is in Mayfair, an area that you’re unlikely to have ever been inclined to head towards for a well-priced meal.
Until now.
Because B&L is offering by far the least expensive lobster (certainly that you’d ever be advised to eat) available in London. Go elsewhere, pay your £20, and you’ll be very lucky to get half a lobster.
Your burger at Burger & Lobster will be big – 180g, compared to 150g at Goodman – and will come served with salad and chips. Should you go for the 1.5lb lobster (and you should), then it will be carefully plucked from around 800 others currently residing within tanks that are located under the restaurant. And then it, too, will be served up with salad and chips.
Group Head Chef John Cadieux – a genuine contender for Jose Pizarro’s “friendliest chef in London” crown – has said that any guests keen to learn about the lobsters and their tanks need only ask: there’s even a viewing gallery for those interested in taking a little tour.
Burger & Lobster: opens to the public at 17:30 tomorrow evening – 17th Dec 2011.
Notes
No menus. Burger & Lobster doesn’t need one, as its menu consists of the following:
Starters: None.
Mains: Burger (£20) or Lobster (£20).
Desserts: Chocolate or Lime Mousse.
No reservations: just turn up. If you need to wait then best do it at the long bar, where you can enjoy cocktails by Soul Shakers that include the Clarges Buck, the Hamilton Cleek, the Angel’s Fall and the Riesling Smash…
