Here’s part of a review of Mere in Charlotte St. The full review can be read here.……………

If you’ve been watching BBC’s MasterChef The Professionals you’ll have seen the stern face of Monica Galetti giving her verdict on some of the food the professional chefs have produced. Only in last nights episode did you see her fun side, when she stole a less than perfect donut from one of the contestants but more of her fun side later.

Monica Galetti Gives a Trademark (Scary) Look at a Less Than Perfect Dish From a Contestant

Coincidentally, earlier in the day I was taken to lunch by my French Lieutenant, Yaz and we went to Mere ( pronounced Mary), Galetti’s new restaurant opened with her wine expert husband, David. She and her husband both worked at Le Gavroche under Michel Roux Jnr. so we were expecting great things. The food is described as ‘classical French with South Pacific influences’ (from her New zealand roots) and we weren’t disappointed. As you enter the restaurant you’re met by helpful staff and a bar decorated with plush blue velvet. We started with two great cocktails that were deceptively strong (I’m going back just for a drink).

The Bar at Mere is Plush Blue Velvet, Well Lit, Welcoming, Has Smooth Floors & a Lift if Required.

The Basement Restaurant Has Good Accoustics and is Not at all Dark With a Flood of Natural Daylight From The Floor to Floor Window

Suitably ‘chilled out’ we were then shown downstairs to our table, I of course went in the newly installed lift – I was told they wanted to be ‘as inclusive as possible’ – refreshing from a top flight chef!

The New lift at Mere Worked a Treat and I was Escorted Every ‘Step’ of The Way

Once downstairs rather than being faced with a dark basement there was a flood of natural light from a floor to floor window and the exterior basement wall was cleverly covered in wood from wine cases. We had an inspection of the disabled toilet and it was stylish as well as fully equipped – top marks in fact.
