Brasserie Blanc

Southeast England


For some Gallic class, head to this understated eatery near Farnham Castle, one of chef Raymond Blanc’s 20 UK restaurants. The simply laid tables, art deco lighting and art-covered walls create a modestly stylish atmosphere, and there’s a walled garden out the back. The menu is a mostly seasonal list of finely crafted dishes cooked using choice French ingredients.
