THE ROSARIUM Restaurant (101 covers) will be a gastronomic adventure by Executive chef Harvey Ayliffe, who has developed a modern British menu, using exclusively British produce, with a wonderland twist. It will incorporate performative and sense-heightening experiences including an Afternoon Tea and cocktail menu. The restaurant will include an indoor terrace and PDR (Private Dining Room) options.
On the menu, Executive chef Ayliffe said “Having worked at some of London’s best restaurants, I wanted my next adventure to capture some of the fun, skill and playfulness of all that London has to offer, taking from its past as well as its fiction, for something truly magical.”
The interior design of the restaurant by Faber will follow suit by taking inspiration from the architecture of the quintessential English gardens of Lewis Carroll’s era, where opulence with a touch of the surreal blends to magical effect.
