About Jaan

Modelled after the famous Jaan restaurant in Singapore and Beverly Hills, Jaan in London is a contemporary, minimalist space with an adventurous French/ Asian menu. Chef Simon Duff has mastered both the classical techniques of French cuisine and the unique spicing of Southeast Asia. The combination is something to behold. Try dishes like Wild Pigeon and Foie Gras served with Lentils and Chanterelles, Bacon and Liquorice Foam. Or enjoy the Shitake Crusted Brill Fillet with Risotto of Black and Red Rice, Crispy Squid and Coriander Foam. Much care has been taken with every detail of this destination eatery from the beautiful French crockery to the select antique Asian artworks. Well chosen wines, many available by the glass, and lovely service, too. The outdoor area is gorgeous in the spring and summer, the waterfall and tropical plants transport you to far further a field that the Embankment! Enjoy a drink in Mauve, our new exciting Champagne bar, before or after your dinner.
