Restaurants; Made to make your mouth water
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Stephen Whitney has just taken over as head chef (he was previously at Mosimann's and the Savoy), and here serves a marbled foie gras terrine with walnut-and-raisin toast, for which there is a pounds 3 supplement on the restaurant's pounds 19 (two-course) or pounds 24 (three- course) set menu, which also includes coffee and a half-bottle of wine.
