倫敦好吃報--Jamie Oliver的 Fifteen
Jamie Oliver, celebrity chef, establishes his restaurant in north London.
His campaign in changing the school dinner in Britain is considered one
of the most significant and revolutionary actions in the 21st century.
The process of his campaign is filmed by Channel Four and has been
sold to Taiwan. Now he is not just a well-known chef in England.
His programme is also very popular and widely watched by the
Taiwanese audience. Well, I guess Jamie must not know he does
have many fans in Taiwan; otherwise, I guess he will start cooking
Chinese food.
Anyway, as Tonta is his biggest fan, we decided to take her there
for dinner. My first impression is of the restaurant is the exceptional
trendy atmosphere and the friendly staff. The Trattoria is on the
ground floor and has an open plan kitchen. The bar displays
various kinds of antipasti, which looks absolutely fabulous.
We did not wait for our table too long; actually the service
is undoubtedly at a very high standard.
The homemade bread is delicious. I particularly enjoy the one
made with rosemary. I guess I just cannot resist the gorgeous
smell from the rosemary.
We had three pasta and a roast monkfish. Two antipasti, one
roasted new potatoes and one salad. All the pasta are
freshly made. We have pappardelle with pork ragu,
tagliatelle carbonara with guanciale and parmigiano
and an oxtail gnocchi. The monkfish is probably the
tenderest one I have ever tasted. Generally I think
they are all very nice. The ingredients come from the
best produce. This is a really enjoyable dining experience.
Something unexpected came up, we discovered a hair in
our dish which is really unpleasant. However, I think the
staff (I am not sure if he’s the manager) handled the
situation very well. He apologized immediately and
very sincerely. He also offered us a new dish which
we kindly rejected. He also took both
the pasta and the monkfish off the bill.
Well I have to say that this is not a cheap or bargain place
to eat, but the food is not bad and we did enjoy our meal
very much (except from the little accident).
-------------------------------------------------
Jamie Oliver的餐廳,在英國可也是數一數二的有名喔!
台灣好像沒有這麼年輕又有名氣的廚師,我能想到的
只有阿鴻ㄟ...
anyway,在倫敦的朋友,或是要來倫敦玩耍的朋友,
有預算的話可以去試試拉!
他的餐廳很有趣喔,叫做Fifteen。Jamie希望給更多英國年輕人
更多機會學習,尤其是一些找不到工作、或是問題青年。Jamie希望
藉由他的力量可以給這個族群的人重新找到對人生的意義還有自
我價值的肯定。
