About This Deal
Fans of Escoffier-style classic French cuisine can sample the taste of a bygone era with £55 towards food and drink at Le Chardon, perhaps beginning by cracking open six rock oysters with shallot vinegar (usually £10.50) or splashing out on a platter of seafood (£29.95). Beef carpaccio with olive oil and lemon juice (£8.95) tempts a taste, while decadent foie gras comes with brioche and a red onion chutney (£11.45). Main attractions include a lamb shank complemented by prunes, rosemary, and port sauce (£15.75), while a whole roast sea bass comes complete with garlic and nutmeg (£17.75).
Groupon gets more of a taste for Le Chardon's history.
How did they get started?
Le Chardon was established by Robert Benyayer whose early experience came working in Cannes as well as a stint catering in the French Army. He travelled and worked in various venues such as Claridge’s Hotel and the London Champagne Exchange before opening his own restaurant.
What kind of menus are available?
In addition to the a la carte menu, there are also options for lunch, breakfast and Sunday lunch. Parties are also catered for.
And finally, how do I get there??
Le Chardon is a short walk from East Dulwich railway station.
