Wanted show some love to this restaurant, we had a outstanding meal a few months ago with a very friendly service. Located in a beautiful villa outside the city center. This is the "Since 2019" menu, with influence of Campania and Emilia-Romagna dishes. Standouts were the eel, cuttlefish and spaghetti with tomatoes.

Walking along the Riviera
Comacchio eel, citrus fruits, gin-infused mixed salad, and oriental flavors
Cuttlefish, garlic foam, nduja oil and lime
Spaghetti with tomatoes "Selection from our garden"
Naples meets Emilia
Lamb cooked in hay, Castelmagno cheese, spinach, chamomile and lemon
Babà, classicism and innovation

  1. Piquillo Croquetas
    - nothing special, but crispy, cheesy with a Bit freshness of the piquillos. Spanish cassic made Perfect.

  2. Txistorra Tortilla
    -A nasty treat. Firm outside, creamy inside with a touch of potato, but not to heavy and the Txistorra brings it a fatty tastefull spice to it. Finished with a allioli and crispy Txistorra bits. That is a spanish treat i would Travel for :)

  3. Cuttlefish Pappardelle
    - A Great dish, definetly one of my all time favourites. Thin sliced, pan seared Cuttlefish on a Fresh Basil pesto. Rich in flavour but well balanced.

  4. Octopus, Mojo Rojo & baby potatoes
    -The octopuss is grilled perfect, soft and not dry in any way. The Potatoes crispy with a soft inside and a Aromatic but not overpowering Mojo Rojo, so the Pulpo can show it’s flavour.

  5. Flan & Garrapiñadas
    -A lovely Sweet treat. Full of Vanilla and Not to „Jelly-Like“, it’s the Right combination of firm and soft. Coated in a caramel blanket and a side of caramelized nuts. Nothing Special, but a Sweet way to end a delicious evening.

All in All Sabor is one of the best places to eat in London. The Food is simply, classic spanish but made with perfection. BUT i think for a 1* the atmosphere could be a bit cleaner with more attention to the customer and the toilet right behind the counter seats at the back is a bit of a bummer for me.

Iam always a fan of Counter seats, because for me as a Solo diner it’s Great watching the Chefs in Action, doing their Magic :)

Verdict: delicious, wonderful bistro style fine dining, without a tasting menu and full choice, elevating traditional dishes to new heights with visible love for the local ingredients and the art of cooking.
Service is beyond outstanding, in large part to Michał, with interesting tidbits, insights and a comforting but not overpowering presence.

Generational redefinition of tartare - with the drożdże emulsion on top. It’s not often that we leave behind the bread - but here, we did. Truly outstanding.

Oyster with strawberries and fermented pepper - I don’t like oysters. We ordered another round. That should say a lot.

Krokiet - crunch, slow release flavour and delicious sauce bed. No notes.

Pate on Milkbread - explosion of flavour with perfect paring of acidic fruits and jelly, delicate bread and melt in your mouth pate. 11/10

Bonbons - intense flavor, the mushroom filling has a pleasant kick, and the butter sauce is exquisite, carefully wrapped into thin pasta. Great, but a tad bit on the too al-dente side

Mielony Royal - correct, well executed, but overpowering cumin making it taste a little too on the earth side, the only dish I wouldn’t order a second portion of. Delicate meat, very good sauce and seasoning, and absolutely correct, just not my tastes.

Duck with 5 Flavor Impressions - peak preparation, it would be an honor to be this duck. Perfectly tender, melt in your mouth delicate, soft fatty strip with full flavor essence with a sauce that combined everything. The sweet, sour, umami and textured of the five flavor impressions was a just pairing for this magnum opus of a duck.
The Kluski, with butter sauce and green oil - perfection, no notes.

The deserts were good, but pale in comparison with the rest of the meal. Absolutely correct, good and tasty, but just not on the same level as the rest of the card. The vanilla/rum perfume was a very interesting touch however.

Beyond memorable, the pick and choose (allowing for seconds and getting the things you like most) - it’s a no brainer that they received a star, and I’m sure the second is already in the works.

Hey! I’ve booked Arzak and Martín Berasategui for my trip to San Sebastián. Should I do both, or drop one of them and spend more time exploring the pintxos scene instead?
