Independent French restaurant group Bistrot Pierre, has launched its biggest menu refresh in years inspired by customer feedback.
The spring menu – which is packed full of the season’s finest ingredients – is now available at all 19 sites across the UK including Eastbourne and sees several dishes make a welcome return and new options added due to popular demand.
A selection of seafood mains have been created especially for the new menu following requests from diners, including a mackerel fillet with buttered new potatoes, grapes, French beans and Dijon beurre blanc and a herb crusted fillet of salmon with risotto, spring vegetables and a saffron infused sauce.
Bistrot Pierre’s chicken printanier is once again available to enjoy and the restaurant’s much-loved croque monsieur – a classic French grilled sandwich of smoked ham, melted cheese and Béchamel sauce, with pommes frites and dressed leaves – has made its way back onto the menu.
The spring offering has been developed in-house by Bistrot Pierre’s executive chef, Matt Ash, who has been instrumental in introducing the largest number of new dishes in years – from mains such as roast pork belly with crispy crackling and a superfood salad, to desserts featuring a praline and chocolate bombe and a champagne sorbet with fresh raspberries and a shot of champagne.
Additional seasonal specials have been created for the warmer months, such as seared scallops in Montpellier butter, sautéed samphire and dressed tomato and a new main of slow-cooked lamb shoulder with dauphinoise potatoes.
The restaurant group has also focused on a wide range of dishes to cater to dietary requirements, providing an impressive selection of vegetarian and vegan options including a roasted root vegetable tagine, as well as gluten free mains like the risotto vert and mackerel fillet.
The new menu will be running until September. For further information about Bistrot Pierre and to book a table, visit: www.bistrotpierre.co.uk
