Offering contemporary French cooking, with influences from surrounding Mediterranean cuisines.

These seasonal fine dining French classics and sharing dishes, are for working lunches and dinners.

The new menu will feature small plates such as Steak tartare; Yellowtail carpaccio; Escargots, served either in ‘Nduja and lemon garlic butter, or garlic and parsley butter, and thinly sliced octopus with lemon and green chili dressing.

Whitcomb’s at The Londoner‘s larger dishes feature fresh pasta, such as Lamb tortellini in Parmesan brodo; Linguine au homard, with seared lobster and San Marzano tomatoes, as well as Lamb cutlets marinated in Dijon mustard and A5 Wagyu rib-eye steak, fresh off the grill.

The dessert menu offers French sweet treats, including Mille-feuille with Taïnori dark chocolate Chantilly, mandarin confiture, and Grand Marnier crème; a zesty and refreshing Tarte au citron, topped with roasted Marcona almonds and honey; and a selection of fine French cheeses.
