CELEBRATE BURNS NIGHT WITH THE CAPITAL RESTAURANT

Knightsbridge favourite The Capital will be offering diners a traditional Burns Night menu on Wednesday 25th January in celebration of the life and genius of Robbie Burns, poet, balladeer and Scotland’s favourite son.

In time honoured fashion, The Capital’s restaurant will be laying on a feast of traditional Scottish delicacies alongside its normal à la carte fare. The menu will be paired with fine wines and whisky, overseen by Bar Manager Cesar Da Silva, whose unrivalled experience and dedication to promoting Scotch whisky recently saw him become the UK’s youngest Keeper of the Quaich.

What promises to be a mouth-watering experience will begin with smoked Scottish haddock served with poached Buford Brown free range egg and mustard sauce, paired with a 10-year-old Benromach.

Guests can then tuck into some traditional haggis with neeps and tatties, carrot and ginger foam, washed down with a 12-year-old Bowmore. To follow is medallion of fallow deer venison, parsnips purée, chestnuts and Brussels sprouts served with a glass of Château La Gasparde Cuvée Prestige 2007.

Raspberry cranachan and a 12-year-old Balvenie Signature will round off a memorable celebratory repast.

Served as either lunch or dinner, the menu will be priced at £35 per head, or £65 to include the whisky and wine pairing. The restaurant’s à la carte menu will also be available.

Demand is expected to be high so early booking is advisable.
