The Modern Pantry- Clerkenwell, London

I went to the Modern Pantry for lunch to celebrate a special occasion. Exceeding all expectations, it was the perfect choice.  The upstairs restaurant is a bright and elegant room…black framed pictures against very light pistachio walls, crisp white table cloths, jars of lilac blooms and pots of fuschia-coloured flowers lining the outside window-sills. Our monkfish and beetroot salad mains were exceptional…even the olives and bread selection to start were a cut above the rest.  A glimpse of the downstairs pantry on my way out confirmed I will be back for afternoon tea or brunch. This ground-floor space is more relaxed and yet the white washed brick walls, low hanging copper lights and enormous floor to ceiling window make it an equally impressive interior.
