Everyone’s talking ribs these days, another essentially American food that could be said to be overhyped and over here. Before the craze started though there was the Rib Room Bar and Restaurant and as you might imagine, they serve pretty much one thing only.

They do ribs every way imaginable, including everything from traditional beef and lamb to fish ribs. The mind boggles at the latter mind you

To celebrate they have the ‘Rib Menu’ available for £85 per person from 14 May – 30 June, exclusively for tables of four or more with imaginatively meaty modern British classics, created by headchef Ian Rudge. Starting with a dish of pressed pavé of foie gras, confit beef rib, apple caramel and Somerset cider jelly, diners move to a fish-course of roasted monkfish ribs, English asparagus, wild garlic purée and shallot foam. Next, they can experience the Spring speciality with a robust combination of braised lamb ribs, roasted sweetbreads and an individual ‘Lancashire hot-pot’ before the pièce de résistance of The Rib Room’s signature dish: chargrilled Aberdeen Angus rib of beef, served with crispy bone marrow, wild mushrooms and seasonal English vegetables.
