This glamorous French-Asian fusion establishment on the London Road in St Albans is a cosmopolitan restaurant with a nod to Josephine Baker inspired glamour and 1920s Shanghai style. Brought to you by the team behind the critically acclaimed Mumtaj Tandoori, Chez Mumtaj Restaurant and Saffron Champagne Lounge is a hit with locals and the dining room - with cream leather banquettes, golden Buddha statuettes and plush Persian carpets – is always filled with a chi-chi crowd. Head Chef Chad Rahman has created a bold menu influenced by Indo-French and Pan-Asian cuisine, and we love the buttered black tiger prawns cooked Malaysian-style; and the seared foie gras with Schezwan pepper, cauliflower puree and hazelnut oil.
