L'Autre



Had dinner at L'Autre in Shepherd's Market. We try to have dinner there each time we come to London. I am sure it is the only Polish-Mexican restaurant in London and may be the only one in the world (at least outside Poland).

The story is that the building was once owned by the Mexican Embassy (Shepherd's Market is in Mayfair the site of many embassys) and that any restaurant in the location must serve mexican food. When the restaurant owners wanted to serve Polish food, L'Autre, with its unique menu was the result.

I had Pheasant, sausage and meatballs in a wild mushroom sauce (started with pate and a shot of Bison Grass Vodka). Terry had the Wild Boar. All excellent as usual.

The wine list is extensive and very reasonable.

When you are in London, give a try.
