The Collection restaurant and bar relaunches

19th September 2011, 8:06am

The Collection restaurant and bar, situated in the heart of Chelsea, is set to relaunch in late September.

Fronted by executive chef Alex Fanzola, the ingredients at the venture are sourced from suppliers such as the organic Laverstoke Park and premium London butchers, O'Shea's of Knightsbridge.  

Dishes include tartare of buffalo with duck egg and sourdough toast, barbeque grouper with samphire marinated in a tomato and lime sauce, seared butterflied prawns with basil emulsion and confit garlic, and clay baked baby chicken with pomegranate molasses and sprouting broccoli.

Designed by Tom Dixon, the lofty interior boasts leather and velvet banquet seating, Dixon's iconic metallic lighting, and textured walls of scorched wood and exposed brick. 

Meanwhile the Collection's cocktail list showcases original cocktails, infused with Mediterranean flavours such as rosemary syrup, muddled Spanish grapes and fresh pear.

And located on the mezzanine, the exclusive Pommery Champagne Bar presents a variety of carefully selected champagnes. The comprehensive wine list features over 80 red, white and rosé wines, available by the glass, bottle and carafe. 

During the weekend, The Collection's Champagne Brunches will offer traditional brunch dishes using organic bacon, eggs and sausages from Laverstoke Park, alongside savoury tarts, quiches and home-made cakes all accompanied by champagne.

The Collection is open daily from 10am until Midnight, serving food all day.
