Conrad London St. James Invites Guests to step Back in Time with a Luxury Heritage Experience & Vintage Menu
Travel Back in Time & Celebrate 100 Years of Hilton at Conrad London St. James
This year Conrad London St. James is celebrating 100 years since Conrad Hilton first established the Hilton brand and committed to the investment of his very first hotel property. Inspired by this milestone, guests are invited to enjoy the Vintage Menu in Blue Boar Restaurant which is dedicated to the elegance of the years gone by or explore the luxury “Back in Time” experience on the River Thames.
Having worked across some of London’s top hotels, Executive Chef Michael Riordan has used his expertise and culinary flair to create a new Vintage Menu to mark 100 years of Hilton. The menu combines fresh, regional ingredients to deliver the tastes and textures of truly British traditional offerings alongside a selection of modern dishes. Guests will be transported back in time with starters including soused herring, served with picked radish, cucumber dill and sour cream, or a traditional brawn, potted pigs head with piccalilli and sourdough. Vintage mains include a Hereford beef cobbler with mature cheddar and thyme scones, steamed steak, ale and mushroom suet pudding or a wild rabbit stew. To finish off the vintage experience why not try a classic spotted dick or opt for a raspberry and almond trifle.
These new vintage dishes are just a few that can be enjoyed with a selection of wines and ports from the restaurant’s striking floor-to-ceiling wine wall. With something to suit every palette, a private dining room for up to 20 guests and an interactive High Table, the Blue Boar Restaurant is ideal for those looking to celebrate a special occasion or host business colleagues.
For those who are looking for more than a vintage dining experience, Conrad London St. James has created a luxury journey that also transports guests back in time in true English style. Guests booking the “Back in Time” Experience step into a classic Rolls-Royce to explore Oxfordshire’s countryside. Drawing up along the banks of the Thames, guests will be met by the captain of a vintage boat ready to travel down the river through the green and glorious countryside. Enjoy lunch on board, before stopping at Cliveden House, where a Private Butlers Tour and sumptuous afternoon tea await.
The Back in Time Experience starts from £2,500 for four guests. Nightly rates at Conrad London St. James start from £317 on a room only basis. For reservations and more information please visit www.conradhotels.com/london or call 020 3301 8080.
