This incredibly charming place will have you thinking you’re in Nîmes or Narbonne rather than a pedestrian alleyway five minutes from Harrods. The food is classic bistro fare, and the look – wood panelling, red and white table linen, dark aprons on waiting staff – maintains the illusion perfectly. But Chabrot is no bistro theme-park: this is seriously skilful cooking using high-quality ingredients. What’s more, despite the locale, it doesn’t even need to be expensive, and the succinct, all-French wine list gives ample scope (including 50cl carafes) under £25.

We built a lunch mostly from the wonderful hors d’oeuvres (‘served as ready’), which is an easy-going way to eat here. Nothing was less than excellent: snails swimming in garlicky butter, marrow bones split lengthwise for easy eating, a robust aubergine salad with soft goat’s cheese, deep-fried squid liberally dosed with spicy Espelette pepper (a fantastic dish). An artisanal charcuterie platter featured top-quality ham, lomo, saucisson, chorizo and rillettes. Some dishes are for two or three for special occasions (such as roast chicken with foie gras), and there is a daily ‘formule’ (main course with/without a glass of wine). The only sour note came from other diners: two young women who did their make-up at the table before departing. But that’s not the management’s fault, and certainly not enough to spoil a memorable meal at an exceptional restaurant.

The food here was superb! You might as well have been transported to France for the evening. Starters of escargot, carpaccio (can't remember the French name but basically raw beef), fresh ewes milk & a selection of charcuterie. The cabbage stuffed with veal and foie gras was to die for. I highly recommend a visit if you want uncomplicated food and good service (plus if you're really nice the head waiter gives you a secret selection of fine French cheeses)
