Welcome to Kitchen Joël Antunès at Embassy Mayfair

Chef Joël Antunès will launch Kitchen Joël Antunès in early November 2011 at Embassy Mayfair. The building is undergoing a total interior refurbishment to create the stylish new 95-seat ground-floor restaurant, with its extended 40-seat terrace. Joël’s business partners are Dan Kapp, Jacobi Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe and Timo Weber, along with Mark Fuller, owner of Embassy Mayfair. Joël was born in Volvic, France, and worked in a number of prestigious French kitchens (Ledoyen, Paul Bocuse at L’Auberge du Pont de Collonges, Marc Meneau at L’Esperance, Michel Troisgros, Jacques Maximim) for a decade before moving to London in 1991. He opened Les Saveurs, in Curzon Street, Mayfair, to incredible critical acclaim, achieving a Michelin star in 1994. He then moved to the USA, and launched Joël in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1999 which swiftly became one of the most talked-about restaurants in the country. He returned to the UK to open Brasserie Joël at the Westminster Park Plaza in March 2010. Kitchen Joël Antunès will showcase a largely Provençal-based menu. Typical dishes will include Jerusalem artichoke velouté with poached eggs and truffles, Traditional Niçoise salad, Pissaladière comme à Menton, Octopus salad with caponata, Shrimp piperade with basil, Traditional coq au vin, Osso bucco gremolata, Sweetbreads with porcini, and Roast sea bass with lemon. Desserts will feature some classics and also some whimsical offerings, including Tarte tatin with vanilla, Poached pear with yogurt sorbet, Chocolat liegois with nougatine, Baked Alaska, and Kit-Kat peanut bar. A wine list of approximately 140 bins will concentrate on the major European wine-growing regions. The interior of Kitchen Joël Antunès is being designed by Jacobi and Dan, with a mood of understated chic, echoing mid-20th century Riviera glamour. A classic French patterned limestone tile flooring will complement the light Carrera marble topped bar. Banquettes, chairs and bar stools will be covered in leather in shades of duck egg blue, burgundy and champagne. A collection of Slim Aarons prints will be hung alongside contemporary art pieces, including a couple of Tracey Emin neons. Kitchen Joël Antunès will be open Monday to Saturday for lunch and dinner. It will also serve coffee and pastries from 11am until noon and in the afternoon each day. With its late-night license until 1.30am, last food orders from the full menu will be at 11:30pm, after which a light menu will be available.
