London’s Chino Latino based on Albert Embankment in South London that boasts unrivalled views of over the Thames has launched a special new Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve menu for the festive season, ideal for those deciding to leave the stress of preparing Christmas Dinner (and clearing up afterwards) to someone else.
Whilst there is a full à la carte menu available, that plays with flavours from across South America, drawing in particularly on Peruvian and Japanese influences, it is the traditional Christmas Dinner Menu that grabs our attention, as many would assume that a Christmas dinner in a Pan-Asian restaurant would be far from a ‘traditional British Classic’. However, if you thought that then you would be wrong. Feast on the traditional Roast Turkey breast and indulge on the crispy pigs in blankets, the fluffy roast potatoes and the honey glazed parsnips and carrots; all whilst sipping on the finest Perrier Jouet Brut Champagne.
As for New Year’s Eve, expect an evening spending time with friends and family and celebrating the start of a new chapter in your life. Chino Latino are offering two different choices, either a sharing menu or a Canapé party in the 12th Floor -Executive Lounge. The Canapé Party immediately grabs our attention, as anything with an unlimited champagne and cocktails reception immediately turns our heads and ticks all of our boxes. This is then followed by a cold buffet featuring Tiger Rolls and Gently Smoked Salmon Tartar. From 9 pm the hot canapés come out and Casterbridge Beef Skewers, Grilled Scallops and Bacon Wrapped Dates. Dessert is produced and the rest of the night is yours to continue enjoying the champagne and cocktails whilst drinking in the stunning views, getting ready to watch the iconic firework show on the Thames at midnight and celebrate well into the new year.
Capacious, sexy and sleek, Chino Latino on London’s Embankment fits the bill as a sophisticated urban space serving modern pan-Asian dishes. Moody tones and reflective surfaces, each evening the desirable space is filled with live jazz performances from their Latin cocktail bar. Curated and headed up by Executive Group Chef Werner Seebach whose experience is rooted in the well known Roka collection as well as London’s famous Sushi Samba; the quality of dining here from the outside in, is expected to be nothing than top notch.
