The spidery web of scrawl that creeps across the ceiling at Skopik & Lohn gives an avant-garde edge to an otherwise French-style brasserie – all wainscoting, globe lights, cheek-by-jowl tables and white-jacketed waiters. The menu is modern European, with a Mediterranean slant, delivering spot-on dishes like slow-braised lamb with mint-pea purée, almonds and polenta, and pasta with summer truffle and monkfish.
