OXBO’s Prosecco Evening Review

We’ve been to OXBO Bankside before but during the summer we were treated to the exciting new menu for Prosecco Evenings! These take place on Thursdays and Fridays.

Chef Ollie Couillaud created a lovely three course menu which took inspiration from international culinary dishes – reflecting the multicultural area of Bankside – by incorporating a twist on Western and Eastern classic dishes. The Bao Buns are quite popular which we found out on the night as they were already sold out. Instead on the night we visited I enjoyed a delicious soup while my friend dined on Sardines on toast for starters. Both dishes were delicious and didn’t last long on our plates, but it was the mains where our meal really shined.

My friend chose the sea bass while I enjoyed the pork belly. This is said to be one of Chef’s Ollie Couillaud personal favourites from his childhood. The Pork Belly melted away in my mouth and was a dream come true.

For dessert we both couldn’t go pass the cheesecake! It’s a favourite and is always the right choice in my opinion.

We throughly loved our time spent at OXBO Bankside on a Friday night and have booked marked it for a visit after the Christmas season is over. I mean it’s a relaxed environment in beautiful surroundings with amazing food, what more could you ask for?

But for those looking to celebrate Christmas this year in London, OXBO Bankside will be offering a sumptuous festive set lunch menu for families and friends to enjoy in its trendy restaurant setting.

Priced at £65 per person, the set lunch will be served on the big day from 12-3pm, with a three-course feasting menu that mixes traditional dishes with a vibrant and sophisticated offering. Expect turkey with all the trimmings as well as a choice of seabass or wild mushroom and black truffle puff, the lunch menu will be served with unlimited bottomless prosecco, red or white wine to accompany the dishes.

Pre-booking is required. To make a reservation please contact Aqif Hussain on 0207 593 3909 or email [email protected].

For those looking to celebrate over New Year’s Eve, the three-course set lunch menu will also be available on December 31st. Bottomless bubbles will also be included for those looking to toast to the New Year. For more details, please visit: http://www.oxbobankside.co.uk/
