One of London’s most lauded Michelin star restaurants is turning the clock back on its prices by 30 years next month.
The nose-to-tail cooking specialists at St John, in Smithfield, will charge diners what they would have paid when the eatery first opened its doors in 1994.
Celebrating its 30th anniversary, St John will offer the same dishes it served up in the mid-90s for as little as £3.50 (Welsh rarebit, if you were wondering).
Roast bone marrow and parsley salad will set you back just £4.20, while pheasant and trotter pie comes in at a very reasonable £18 between 9 and 27 September.
The Michelin Guide describes the restaurant as creating a “joyful experience” with “very little ceremony”.
“As one of the foremost proponents of nose-to-tail cooking, this is the place to try new things,” it reads.
The restaurant puts seasonality “at its core”, said the guide, which recommends ordering the warm madeleines for the journey home.
