L’AUTRE PIED OPENS IN THE HEART OF MARYLEBONE VILLAGE

Marcus Eaves opens his first restaurant in partnership with his mentors Shane Osborn and David Moore of 2 Michelin starred Pied a Terre. After 4 years as Osborn’s sous chef and protégé, Eaves finally heads up his own venture, with the backing and support of the Moore/Osborn partnership. The new restaurant, located in Blanford Street off Marylebone High Street, pays homage to his business partners’ restaurant Pied a Terre, by the name of Eaves choice – L’Autre Piéd.

At only 26, the young Eaves has garnered his experience throughout the UK with some of the countries leading 2 Michelin starred chefs, culminating with 4 years under the skilled tutelage of Shane Osborn. “Every chef aspires to opening their own restaurant, so this is a dream come true for me. The experience of working alongside Shane has been invaluable and his culinary creations are inspired. My passion for food will continue in L’Autre Pied, but with my own menu. I am looking forward to the challenge”

The modern European menu will offer exciting creative dishes like Ballotine of Cornish mackerel, pickled baby carrot, red mustard leaves and Roasted partridge, pearl barley, game broth scented lemon thyme and to follow Fig bavarois, cinnamon crème fraiche, clove ice cream. Joining Eaves in the kitchen as number two and making it a family affair, will be his brother Jason, formerly sous chef at Cheltenham’s Le Champignon Sauvage.

The design of L’Autre Pied comprises a glass-fronted restaurant, a small bar and bespoke furnishings. Combined they set the desired ambiance to one of relaxed formality. In addition to the main restaurant, L’Autre Pied will provide private dining for up to 16 guests, which is discreetly placed at the rear of the restaurant and sectioned off with partitioned doors.

L’Autre Pied is open Monday to Friday for lunch from 12.00 pm till 3.00 pm and for dinner from 6.00 pm until 10.45 pm. Saturday is open for dinner only, from 6 pm till 10.45 pm and will be closed Sunday.
