The Tate Modern Restaurant manages the impressive feat of flying under the radar while looking down on The Thames. The view across to St Paul's from the sixth-floor dining room is impressive, but I never hear from anyone about eating there. It's long been the story. Twenty years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to review the restaurants at Tate Modern and Tate Britain for @bloombergbusiness, and it was really a little difficult to find out about either. Two decades on, and the depressing fact is that the charming Rex Whistler restaurant at Tate Britain -- with its remarkable wine list and lovely tables on the lawn -- closed following concerns over its murals; while not a lot has changed at Tate Modern, until now. There's a new chef, Chris Gillard, best known as the former executive head chef at St. John, where he cooked for 15 years and won a Michelin star; and front of house is managed by @jampritch101 (Silo, Frenchie, St John and @bruno_loubet's Grain Store). I went for lunch with Bruno's wife, Catherine. She's visiting from Australia.(These days, if you want to try Bruno's cooking, there's always @seedsbybrunoloubet at Brisbane Airport.) Anyways, @chefgillard is shaking up things a bit, with a range of dishes highlighting seasonal British ingredients. He's also aligning his cooking with the Tate ethos, including menus inspired by current exhibitions. Right now, there's a Mike Kelley menu, which celebrates the experimental American artist and draws on the cultural landscape of his Detroit roots. I ordered Iceberg wedge salad, blue cheese dressing & crispy bacon - £11 (but went without bacon); followed by the vegetarian Hoppin John, black eyed peas, kale & crispy corn grits - £25. Catherine went a la carte, with Smoked chalk stream trout, potato & dill £12; Hake, celeriac & cider butter sauce - £28. And very good it all was, too. So I recommend that people should try the restaurant for its food, service and views! Thank you to Chris and James for inviting us. #rvinesdines@[instagram] #tatemodern Less
