Restaurant Francatelli

Overview

Francatelli is a British Restaurant in the heart of London, inspired by one of William Drabble's favorite historical chefs, Charles Elme Francatelli, who in the early 1800s was 'Chief chef of St. James' Club.' Francatelli was a celebrity chef of his day, who left St James Club to be Queen Victoria's chief chef and authored a cookbook, 'The Modern Cook,' in 1846 that inspired the menu of Francatelli's at St James Hotel & Club. The menu is rooted in simplicity and British produce, punctuated with some show-stopping dishes.
