Experience a taste of French inspired deliciousness this festive season…
Nothing can quite beat the smell of a French patisserie at Christmas time. The beautifully warm blends of sweet cinnamon, berries and ginger wafting through the air.
Now, it mightn’t be necessary to head across the channel for the authentic experience, for London’s Aubaine can bring it right to you.
From the end of November, the relaxed all-day dining brasserie is bringing a special French Noël twist to their menu, with a range of delicious seasonal cakes and patisserie items to enjoy in the restaurant or to take away. Expertly crafted by Aubaine’s Chef Patissier Alix Andre, the range will include the likes of Christmas tree macarons with flavours of macha to a deliciously decadent traditional dark and white chocolate Buche de Noël or a Galette des Rois with buttery pastry and smooth almond cream.
The restaurant itself is offering a Christmas set menu for just £19.50 for two courses.
We had the chance to try the menu for ourselves just a couple of weeks ago and can think of nowhere more perfect to enjoy a truly delicious meal in a beautiful relaxing and christmassy atmosphere.
You can enjoy sumptuous winter comforts like poached egg with butternut squash tart and red port reduction or smoked salmon, beetroot tartare and horseradish with watercress salad. There are three mains on offer including a traditional Ballotine of roast turkey with Alsace bacon, confit potato, sage & chestnut jus or Provençal Black truffle tortellini with chestnut velouté & crushed chestnut.
For just an extra £4 you can indulge in one of Aubaine’s beautiful desserts such as a miniature Tarte Tropezienne with smooth winter spiced crea
And of course, what Christmas meal would be complete without a glass of mulled wine? Aubaine are bringing back their unique warming blend of winter spices for that extra special festive addition.
If groups of 6 or more book by the end of November, you can enjoy a complimentary glass of prosecco or white mulled wine on arrival.
Book your table here now and don’t miss out on a french twist of festive fun…
