BROOKLANDS BY CLAUDE BOSI LAUNCHES NEW CONCORDE LUNCH MENU

Brooklands by Claude Bosi, the striking rooftop restaurant at The Peninsula London, is pleased to announce the debut of the Concorde Lunch: a modern British menu inspired by the bold innovation of its namesake supersonic jet on the 50th anniversary of its first flight. Featuring the finest seasonal ingredients from regional producers, the three-course menu invites diners to embark on a gastronomic voyage of the United Kingdom. The new offering reflects both the restaurant’s commitment to British artisanship, and to the culinary excellence that recently earned it two Michelin stars.

Created by Chef Director Claude Bosi and Chef de Cuisine Francesco Dibenedetto, the menu aims to provide an exceptional dining experience at “Concorde speed” – with three courses served within 60 minutes. Starters include a choice of Mora Farm beetroot with stracciatella and black cardamom or St. Austell Bay mussels with cider and three-cornered garlic. Main dishes include veal cheek accompanied by smoked blanquette and pickled red onion, and Cornish cod with Koshihikari rice and a citrus velouté. Indulgent desserts – such as Ringden Farm quince with cocoa mucilage ice cream and a Moscato emulsion; or a selection of locally-sourced Risely and Spenwood British cheeses – ensure a memorable finish.

Further enhancing the new lunch experience is the dining room at Brooklands by Claude Bosi, which itself pays full-sensory homage to the dramatic design of the Concorde. Conceived by renowned architects Archer Humphryes, the light-filled space is dominated by sculptural scale replica of the jet suspended from the ceiling. Underfoot, the carpet displays the constellations as they would have appeared to passengers; and a floor-to-ceiling, digital artwork projects abstract patterns to signify the aircraft’s journey through the atmosphere. Reproduced furnishings from the original Concorde lounge are also displayed throughout the restaurant.

The impeccable attention to detail embodied by Brooklands’ cuisine and design also informs its superb wine list. Curated by Head Sommelier Gioele Musco, the list carefully balances modernity and tradition, highlighting a selection of French vintages alongside an expansive list of New World wines.

The Concorde menu is available from Tuesday to Saturday between noon and 1:30 pm and is priced at £58 for three courses.
