After dining at Pont St in the Belgraves Hotel several times, I ended up begging Chef Sophie Michell to create a Thanksgiving Day menu for us AGs, and our families of course. Well, Sophie delivered!
Currently one of the youngest female Executive Chefs in Britain, Sophie’s twist on the traditional American dinner is translated through a menu where sweet potatoes – to accompany the roasted Kelly Bronze Turkey and chestnut stuffing – are playfully paired with caramelised marshmallow and a side of mac and cheese, and the customary pumpkin pie is served up with a delicate ginger spice ice cream.
I’ll be making a reservation for Thanksgiving evening. If you’re an AG reader and you book as well, make sure to pop over and say hi!
