The French House Cook Book
A collection of recipes and stories from the legendary Soho pub and its upstairs dining room in Dean Street.
One of a precious handful of real old-Soho restaurants and bars still flourishing in this famous London quarter, ‘The French’ has long been a magnet for fine cooking and conviviality, the genial hum of conversation orchestrated by its stubborn insistence on no mobile phone conversations, no TV, and no music.
The restaurant is known for its daily handwritten menus and head chef Neil Borthwick will take us through his favourite recipes to cook and eat – all with a focus on fresh and quality ingredients. Alongside the food, this illustrated book will feature photographs of the pub and dining room, as well as portraits and memorabilia from over the years. Recipes sit alongside a colourful history of this classic London institution, which has seen a steady stream of devoted locals, artists and bohemians, including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Dylan Thomas, Jeffrey Barnard and Brendan Behan. With an enduring cult status to this day, the French House continues to draw people in for delicious food and no-frills revelry.
