Frenchie Covent Garden unveils a new look for Autumn
As summer draws to a close, husband and wife team Gregory and Marie Marchand have been busy updating the interiors of their UK restaurant, Frenchie Covent Garden, with the simple aim of enhancing their guests’ experience.
Launched in early 2016, the award-winning sister restaurant to Frenchie Paris (designed by Emilie Bonaventure) has undergone a two-week refresh to bring more comfort and additional seating to the space on Henrietta Street. The restaurant’s light filled entrance now features a glass screen to provide extra warmth for guests as the colder months draw near whilst the addition of a pair of high dining tables at the rear of the restaurant will provide a more intimate dining option. The restaurant now offers space for an additional ten diners.
Gregory Marchand, known to many as ‘Frenchie’, began his culinary journey in western France at the age of 15. He learned to cook in Nantes, France, in the kitchen of the orphanage where he grew up and would soon embark on a culinary journey that would take him into some of the world’s finest kitchens in London, Hong Kong, Spain and New York.
Using the world as his larder, Gregory’s instinctive approach to cooking delivers simple yet sophisticated dishes rooted in French cuisine and transformed through inspiration from his international repertoire.
Working with all ingredients, from the simplest to the noblest, Gregory and his team strive for authentic, original culinary creations graced with impeccable seasoning and his now-famous touch of acidity. Gregory’s cuisine is described in turns as generous, inspired or daring, but it is always a source of surprise and delight.
New dishes on the menu at Frenchie Covent Garden will include Sweetcorn “porridge”, smoked eel, pineapple sage and lime and Grouse with wild blackberries, Scottish girolles and sumac.
The newly refreshed Frenchie Covent Garden will re-open on Tuesday 12th September.
