Locanda Locatelli


By Jilly's Kitchen (Visit website)






Recently my husband and I had the good fortune to enjoy a meal at Locanda Locatelli in London. This is Georgio Locatelli's well deserved, Michelin starred restaurant on Seymour Street.


Apart from an incident where the waiter's strongly accented English led us to make the mistake that a glass of sparkling wine was £4.50, rather that £15.00 (each) and my husband ordered two; we found the restaurant to be very reasonably priced considering the quality and masterly execution of the dishes. In short it was the best meal that I have ever eaten.


The visit has inspired me to include more Italian food in our diet. I have started with some basic pesto, have made a walnut paste to use in pasta with herbs and fresh tomatoes and an agrodolce sauce to eat with monkfish. These sauces are rustic and wholesome, the general basis for Italian cooking, but they also contain complex flavours and layers of taste which, if combined correctly, can really 'pack a punch'. The test is whether I can combine them correctly. Regardless, it is fun trying.





Clockwise from top: Pesto, Walnut Paste and Agrodolce sauce.
