Alex Webb On Park Lane Dishes Out New Tasting Menus
25 Jan 2023
Hot on the heels of the Christmas announcement that MasterChef: The Professionals winner, Alex Webb, had made his pop-up permanent at the InterContinental London Park Lane, comes a fresh new wave of menus from an accessible two course menu through to seven course tasting experiences.
Expect to be taken on a gastronomic journey with an inventive and surprising menu characterised by clever and creative flavour combinations. Dishes are inspired by nostalgic flavours from Alex’s childhood and his travels, while championing seasonal British produce for sea, land, and tree. Favoured ingredients include foraged flowers and herbs from Badger’s Garden in Bucks and beef from Lake District Farmers to name a few.
With the option for two-courses (£40) or three-courses (£60), highlights include a Beef carpaccio with pickled shimeji, pine nut purée, truffle and sourdough crouton; an Atlantic cod topped with sea herbs, an onion purée, pickled onions, crispy potato and champagne sauce; and Lake District pork chop with pearl barley risotto, slat backed carrot, apple compote, crispy pork skin and pork jus. Must-try sides include Black winter truffle and Slow cooked butter and thyme potatoes with Parmesan.
Round off the menu with showstopping desserts featuring Tonka bean and yuzu mille-feuille with clotted cream ice cream and Banana soufflé with caramelised pecan, caramel sauce and banana ice cream.
The star of the show though is the immersive seven-course tasting menu (£110pp) that showcases Alex’s passion for seasonal ingredients and creative storytelling food through his recipes. Be ready to be wowed with Alex’s fast becoming signature – Lobster toast with black sesame and sweet chilli jam and a Beef fillet with black mushroom purée, girolles, tomato gel and beef jus. Finish off with an espresso martini soft whip followed by the Insta-worthy secret dessert – Alex’s Mystery box – we are sworn to secrecy! Cider and wine pairings are also available alongside Alex’s menus (from £25pp). A vegetarian alternative is available for £95pp.
Alex Webb on Park Lane also features a bar, serving creative cocktails with signature choices such as the Geranium Fizz with Acqua di cedro Bassano, geranium syrup, orange blossom water, Hattingley Valley Classic Reserve; and the Pisco & Ibisco made with BarSol pisco, lemon, ginger beer, hibiscus and clove syrup, applewood smoke. In addition, the restaurant offers a wide range of French, English and natural wines, and cider from Sandford Orchards, including Alex’s own signature blend created especially for the restaurant.
The Essex-born chef started out washing pots at his local restaurant aged just 14, before honing his skills in some of London’s top restaurants, including Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, Dinner by Heston, Roux at Parliament Square and The Frog in Hoxton. Alex has gone from strength to strength, being crowned the winner of MasterChef: The Professionals in 2020 to establishing his name on Mayfair’s culinary scene.
Re-opening on Wednesday 25th January, the new menu will be available Wednesdays – Saturdays, with bookings available via icparklanedining@ihg.com or +44 (0)20 7409 3131.
