In part two of our latest Lunch with Loftus episode, @davidloftus and @jamieshears11 settle into the Italian Room at @mountstrestaurant over a glass of Sicilian dessert wine.
As Jamie grates fresh nutmeg over the beautifully burnished tart, the conversation turns to the spirit of modern British dining at Mount St. from proper Sunday roasts and golden Scotch eggs, to Jamie’s early chef training in the army.
Set amongst more than 200 pieces of artwork, Mount St. is one of London’s most stunning settings celebrating food, craftmanship and culture at every turn. It’s a must visit for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Some pairings are a classic for a reason.
In our latest Lunch with Loftus episode, @davidloftus joins @jamieshears11 at @mountstrestaurant where simple things are done beautifully well.
Much of the menu is inspired by the capital’s culinary history with a modern twist, including today’s sweet treat, a silky egg custard tart crowned with a sharp rhubarb sorbet.
Jamie invites us behind the scenes in his kitchen as this elegant British bake takes shape from the indulgent, golden custard to the final bake. Stay tuned for the finishing touches served in their stunning Italian Room tomorrow…
Pairing with our Head of Wine and Master Sommelier, Agnieszka Swiecka 🍷
Dry aged fillet steak, potato rosti, morels and asparagus | Bambole Rosso, Bibi Graetz, Tuscany, Italy 2023
“Bibi Graetz ‘Bambole’ is a soulful expression of Tuscan Sangiovese with crisp acidity cutting through richness of the dish and round, silky tannins complementing exceptionally tender, melt-in-the-mouth texture of fillet steak. The slightly earthy and herbal aspect of the wine enhances the flavour of seasonal asparagus and morels. The wine offers generous bright cherry, violets and small berry fruit notes which elevate the dish and bring balancing sweeter aromatic accent.”

There’s a lot of reasons why we love @mountstrestaurant : the friendly faces on the door, the stellar art collection (we’re talking Warhol, Freud, Matisse), the Italian bar. The list goes on and on…
We’ll meet you at the bar for a Mount St. Martini 🍸
Joining us over the Easter weekend? For a limited time, enjoy freshly baked hot cross buns, served alongside our bread with our famed chicken liver parfait.
As the season shifts, our menu showcases produce in its seasonal peak – Wye Valley asparagus, wild garlic, earthy morels, and of course, lamb from our farm.

Running the floor at @mountstrestaurant , Gergo Kuti (@gergo_kuti ) sees Mount Street Neighbourhood at its best day to day—whether he's spending all day with guests, popping to @marchesi1824 for an espresso or spending his breaks in Mount Street Gardens.
This summer, he's looking forward to the sun returning to Grosvenor Square and seasonal asparagus returning to the menu at Mount St. Restaurant. Scroll through to get to know Gergo's favourite neighbourhood spots.
Yesterday we marked International Women’s Day with a Literary Lunch in our Scottish Room, in partnership with @womensprize . The gathering brought together 30 women to celebrate the work of Kate Mosse and the Women’s Prize Trust.
Founder Director of the Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction, Mosse is also the creator of the global #WomanInHistory campaign. It was therefore especially fitting to discuss her latest book, Feminist History for Every Day of the Year.
All proceeds from the Literary Lunch will be donated to the Women’s Prize Trust.
