Having
successfully established itself on the London restaurant scene, The
Knaypa is set
to
introduce a
new chef and à la carte menu. Recently appointed head chef
Lukas Widomski spent several years with Caprice Holdings alongside
Mark Hix and Tim Hughes, and this, together with his Polish heritage,
makes for an interesting and delicious menu.
The Knaypa's
new menu has its roots firmly in the cuisine of Poland but Widomski
has added his own experiences, garnered in both his homeland and the
UK, to create some truly tantalising dishes such as, 'Croquette of
Sauerkraut and Mushrooms served with Borscht', 'Pork Tenderloin
served with Roast Potatoes and Prunes accompanied By Chanterelle
Sauce', 'Sea Bas Fillet with Lobster Sauce served on Green Beans',
Rack of Lamb, Garlic & Herb Butter served with Hash Browns' and
'Autumn Cake with Plums, Blackberries, Raspberries, Blueberries and
Walnuts served warm with Mascarpone Cheese'..
The Knaypa
has also announced that at the Archant Awards Ceremony held on 7th
September 2008 it won the categories of both 'Mixologist of the Year'
and 'Modern European Restaurant of the Year' in the Hammersmith &
Kensington area.
