A Night to Remember

HANAKO RECOMMENDED

Let’s cut to the chase – Faber Wine & Seafood in Hammersmith is the kind of spot that makes you want to scream, ‘Why haven’t I been here before?’

From the moment you walk through the cute door, it’s evident that Faber is playing in the big leagues, and it’s not messing around.

Fresh fish for all
caught and served daily

Ambience:
Stepping into Faber Wine & Seafood is like entering a Mermaid Lagoon wonderland. The interior gracefully bathes you in a chic pink palette, setting the stage for a dreamy ambiance where sipping on a crisp Prosecco and indulging in a sumptuous seafood tower.

Choose between plush sofa seating or intimate round tables – an ideal setting whether it’s a romantic date or a lively gathering with friends.

As you gaze out the window, the outside world seems to momentarily fade away, leaving you enchanted by the illusion that you are away from Hammersmith.

Service:
A team that takes genuine pride in crafting your dining experience. With a wealth of knowledge about the menu, they extend a level of care that transforms a mere meal into a memorable journey.

Drinks:
The wine list at Faber was adorable as design and selection wise. My recommendation? Dive into the realm of their British wines. Rarely do you come across such exceptional British wine selections, and Faber has curated a list that’s nothing short of extraordinary.

Price:
Absolutely content to embrace this price tag, especially when it guarantees the pleasure of savoring these just-harvested-from-the-sea delights! The freshness of the seafood here is simply unparalleled, and every pound spent is an investment in a culinary journey that transcends the ordinary.

What I Ordered:

  • *Monkfish Skewers
  • Mussels
  • Wild Seabass
  • Plaice
  • Braised Lentils

*Monkfish Skewers

Monkfish Skewers Faber
Monkfish Skewers (£6)

An absolute triumph—fresh, impeccably textured, and a true delight for the palate.

That tartare sauce, yes the magic it weaved! Tangy and creamy, it brought an irresistible zest that danced harmoniously with the mild monkfish flavor.

Mussels

Mussels Faber
Mussels (£10)

The mussels were plump, juicy, and cooked to absolute perfection. However, what truly set this dish apart and rendered it uniquely spectacular was the surprise addition of crispy artichoke top on the mussels.

Then the broth. The infusion of lemon thyme delivered a bright and zesty kick, skillfully cutting through the richness of the mussels. Not only did it elevate the dish, but it also expertly mellowed any lingering fishy sea notes, showcasing the chef’s profound understanding of balance.

Wild Seabass

Wild Seabass Faber
Wild Seabass (£20)

The Wild Seabass gracefully unveiled succulent, flaky white meat with each delectable bite.

Yet, what truly captured my culinary affection was the squash puree. Its velvety texture laid the foundation for a luxurious experience, seamlessly allowing the subtle sweetness of the squash.

Plaice

Plaice Faber
Plaice (£30)

The Plaice made a bold entrance onto the plate, marrying a sense of audacity with elegance.

Now, let’s talk about the culinary revelation that is the Café de Paris Sauce. A true star in its own right, its complex fusion of herbs and butter imparted a richness that elevated the mild flavor of the Plaice.

Speaking of the Plaice itself, it was a testament to skilled cooking, with a tender texture that unveiled the freshness of the fish. The crispy skin, a testament to the chef’s prowess on the grill, added an extra layer of culinary expertise to this gastronomic treasure.

Braised Lentils

Simplicity is the key to culinary excellence, and the Braised Lentils at Faber effortlessly encapsulate this philosophy. The lentils, slow-cooked to perfection, had a melt-in-the-mouth quality. The braising process had infused them with a rich, savory essence, creating a comforting and hearty base.

This dish serves as a testament to the chef’s mastery in achieving a harmonious balance, ensuring that the side dish complements and supports the main dish flawlessly.

Conclusion:

In a city filled with dining options, Faber Wine & Seafood stands out like a diamond in the rough. It’s the kind of place you’ll be raving about to your friends, trying to subtly flex that you’ve found THE spot.

So, the next time you’re in London and craving an unforgettable culinary adventure, do yourself a favor – head to Faber. Your taste buds will thank you.
