It all looked fine and the price was reasonable. PS: That steak was medium-rare, not medium. Perfect for me, but not if I'd made your request. Excellent review.
what temperature do you consider medium rare and medium to be? These restaurants should really give temperatures out (as well as what they consider those temperatures to mean), you should be asked to look for a colour/photo chart but some might think it tacky or frown on it for whatever reason (esp. as people could have legit complaints!). It looked like it was done in a sous vide bath or a low oven as the colour was pretty consistent.
Medium rare expels fluid medium doesn’t hence the dry bread underneath 👍
It was medium.
‘Nuff said.
Definitely medium rare.Rested medium steaks don't bleed on the plate.
I agree with Ian it was MR, and I also agree with Dan it looked that is was sous vide. The redness or pinkness was till the outerline of the steak which means it was not on the grill for long enough but enough to give it the maillard reaction. The whole plate looked good actually delicious.
Another great video. Those bloopers at the end really show how much hard work you actually put in to get it right, clearly not easy to get it right first time!
Lol. Thanks Ian. 😂😊
The only fillet served en croute is usually a tornedos Rossini. It did look nice though even though they try to poncify the dish with a croute. Lovely touch with the knife. £28 for a fillet at Marco Pierre whites is not badly priced. 9/10
I love tornedos Rossini especially the pate
Haha the bloopers at the end are just great! I'd love to see more of them, keep doing it Lee.
Marco explained why he returned Michelin stars, because he strongly believes that person who earned them needs to be behind the stove and he couldn't do it anymore. I hope this answers your doubt about why he isn't there, also he owns couple of restaurants worldwide. Also, when he worked in his 3 star restaurant back in mid 90s, price of a meal per person was above 200gbp, this answers your second doubt whether it's better if he cooks it. He wants his restaurants to feed middle class people at affordable prices. I'm pretty sure he is personally training his chefs to ensure high standarsds. Thanks for the video, very nice.
Another great video - thankyou for your hardwork and uploading your experiences.
the outtakes were brilliant 🤣
Lol. 😂
Spot on and off the charts, both meals looked superb, quality food in a quality restaurant. Marco is employing good chefs for sure. Prces ok for an upmarket eatery. Nothing to fault, 9.8 out of 10. I met Marco Pierre White some years ago - 2012, he was promoting his restaurant on P&O Ship Arcadia I was on, Sydney to Southampton, he embarked in Gibraltar. Nice fellow. Good to see Marco maintains the standard.
Best quote ever " I wouldn't like to be under your quilt tonight " @1:38 great video the steak was so nice I was licking my monitor
I was surprised at the price. My local pub charges similar so expected it to be a lot more.
Out takes were brilliant Lee. Keep them coming
Great review again Lee, the sound of that knife through that batter !
Good tip on the membership.
Charity donation great.
Bloody service charge again !!
Great video Lee and funny out takes
Went to his restaurant about a decade ago in Winchester,the only ones in there for the 8.95 lunch special with a glass of wine absolutely lovely I still remember it now.....
I don't think your analogy of an employee chef not putting as much effort in as the owner works here for the most part. These chefs are building a reputation. Michelin stared chefs all built their reputation in other people's restaurants. I know this isn't top top end, but the principle still works here. Marco will have employed the chef, and I can almost guarantee it won't be a journeyman chef, but an up and comer.
Very reasonable costs for a place of that standard.
16.95 for fish n chips WTF
Marco is from Gipton in Leeds, one of the most poverty stricken areas of the city (edit: I lived there as a child, too). That he changed how we eat in Britain is nothing short of a miracle. I've eaten in the same grill, and I post this before I watch the video - i loved it and it was worth every penny. I am certain you'll agree but I will edit this post in 20 minutes if not.
I agree. Loved it!!! ❤️
Been in his restaurant in county Durham not impressed
Well done Sticky. I was gonna post something along those lines an you beat me to it…
Brilliant as ever but the outtakes had be laughing I couldn't breathe with all the laughter so so funny 😂😂😂
Lol. 😂
Hiya Lee, Looking very dapper in your suit. Nice to see you chilled out. Relaxing video. The food looked so good. Really cheap compared to some places I have been. I love the bloopers. 😂😂🤣
Steak looked bang on. If I’d asked for medium rare (which I would) I’d be happy as Larry with that.
Outtakes are brilliant! Made me laugh! Brilliant again.. Daves had a haircut lol
Hair by Baz the Barber and he did while I wait no postage charge ….😂😉 if in around Nottm give him a try folks ..
Lol. Cheers Baz 😊
I prefer my steak to be a bit rarer and I love fish with the skin on. Looks like a good deal though. Hope you enjoy the trip to the States
Great review Lee, Cant wait to book this, im going to pause your vid on the steak knives so i know which one to choose now lol :-D definitely looked medium rare but was perfect for that fillet just wow. Price sounded great considering where you were ...should have put the same amount on Red in the casino and walked :-) loved the outtakes keep em up ;-)
I am impressed with the cost, really surprised how good value it is. Meal looks absolutely gorgeous, I think 10. Your bloopers are hysterical, made me lol keep safe, on to the next one
Love the outtakes lee
If you are ever in SW France, I'll take you out for a superb lunch entrée, main, cheese, desert, coffee. All for 15 euro. 🐟🐟🐟🏴🇫🇷
You're on!!! 👍🏼👍🏼
The two of you looked like Don Quixote and his sidekick, Sancho Panza, ready to tilt at any windmill en route to MPW
10:35 I bet the knorr stockcube really made this dish taste 😋 👌
@UKMacMaster I totally agree that as soon as I seen that steak cut open, it looked perfectly cooked. I was in a MPW in Belfast a few years ago (now closed) and it was great too. Lee, perhaps can you explain the service charge? Does this charge get passed onto the server, meaning you don't have to leave a tip, or does it go to the restaurant? I've never understood this... Got to come to NI sometime to sample the food here. 👌
I've seen steaks in pubs that cost more and they dont let you choose your own fucking steak knife. I need to visit this place at some point
🤩WOW....i been a huge fan of Marco through out my own career....
I used him as my mentor ...10/10
Starting for price wise .blown a way his honest to his word of affordability...🤩every thing there i seen was beautiful..thanks for showing this one .😀👍
Wow the prices aren’t too bad I thought it would be a lot more expensive
When those knives turned up you should have said no thanks and got one out of your pocket! I remember many years ago my boss telling me he had been at a work lunch where somebody actually produced his own steak knife and fork. Alternatively you could have stood Dave against the wall and started throwing them at him a la circus performer. Seriously though food didn't look too bad but paying for the name.
Lol. 😂
Thanks Colin.. He would have enough to aim at lol😂
Wow, what a reasonably priced restaurant, nice looking food too.. though my partner may have to order double potions lol, looks lovely for special occasions! I loved that you could pick your own steak knife. May try jere for my 31st, cheers 👏
Fantastic cheeper than i expected nice to see Dave again top vlog
Looked great, 50 quid for 2 is totally fine really good.
Food looked great. Loved the outtakes! 🤣🤣
This thing you have about the skin on fish… you can ask for it removed when you order but the flavour is in the skin. It’s also a traditional way to showcase what fish it is ie the colour of the line on the skin shows exactly what species of fish it is and that they are not using a cheap alternative. Cod has light silver and haddock has dark grey for example.
Indeed leave the skin on, it assists in keeping the juices in the fish flesh and when crisped up, lubbly jubbly.
Decent price looked really nice,fish looked a bit thin and small,the steak looked wonderful 8/10
Suited and booted spruce up well Lee look forward to this just watched darrens 100th vlog loved it 😍 and am pouring another wee Gin watching yours interesting to see what his food and prices are like 👍
Thanks Chelle 😊
I had a t- bone steak 🥩 today!
Hereford grass fed, organic, free range 18oz.
Smoking metal pan, 7 mins each side, rested for another 7 , whilst the chips came out.
And no hidden service charge.
Forget the chef..
Always remember the ingredients 👍
Looked fantastic all perfectely cooked
@the macmaster its pst zzz time go to sleep lol. Only awake as back in hospital. Nightmare trying to sleep here x
My sister just walked in while I'm watching this and said "is that Curly Watts from Corrie"
Lol. 😂
Sat on the balcony over looking the sea in tenerife having breakfast and then going for a nice dip in the pool as the sun comes up ,just catching up on the vlogs where I can(sorry lee,you can't waste time when weather is like this over here🌞👌🤣)I've eaten and been in the casino and I have enjoyed my meals there👌👍
Very honest review, well done
Food looked great and reasonably priced ,you should always serve fish with skin on as it adds to the flavour , i get fed up with all the chips shops selling skinless fish these days ( rant over lol), presentation of the food looked good. I had the pleasure of eating a menu of his aboard a P&O ship the Ventura , but missed him by a day , however a good quality chef should be able to reproduce the menu as Marco wants 👍 great vlog Lee 👍
I loved the end with the cuts.
Lol. 😂
Hey Lee! Just checked this video out as I had earlier been to the Marco Pierre White Steakhouse at Liverpool inside the Indigo Hotel. I decided to have the Fish & Chips, it was priced at £19.95 which give or take in this day and age? Is expensive, having said that however, the service was top notch, very friendly and attentive, the fish and chips itself was absolutely fantastic and very well cooked. There also was a service charge applied which worked out at about £1.95. Despite the Service Charge I definitely would recommend coming here if you are going just for the food, one of the few occasions I actually did not have a pint with a meal! 😂
Apart from the ungloved fingering on the steak knives " That did look lovley " Both dishes"Good value aswell ' thought it was easy in the region of £70 + " Good review 🖒
Marco won me over by handing back his Michelin Awards, and he is right it is just bullshit that burns good guys out, trying to achieve a perfection level that not many have nor will.
But then how did Ramsey get like 12
@@Dizzyj360 17 not 12
the late Joël Robuchon has achieved the highest up to now with 32, that will stand for ages.
mpw ive been in several ,never had a bad meal ,good afternoon teas as well ,staff always ultra helpful ,looking very smart lee ,,ive never seen the knife thing though b4 ,
Brilliant review 🤗
Hey Lee! Wow you’re looking very dapper and smart in suit and tie! As I will say I’m not a steak lover but that peppercorn sauce and mushrooms looked beautiful and the salad bits. Don’t know what the toast bit was for but hey ho. Lovely crunchy chips. Didn’t rate David’s fish. Just the way it looked put me off. Nothing wrong with peas and chips. Great Vlog and funny outtakes 🤣🤣 your a star Lee 👍🏻
Thanks Sara x
Ok people has there own batter taste and how they like it, the case coverd batter is my fav and we'll nice if done right, fish didn't look that bad for a grill house, and thought you would have gone for the biggest knife Lee just to take the Mick, the fillet steak is a thick cut so I can see why it was a bit more rare but looked nice cooked with the pepper corn might have to try that alway had it to pour over, anyways can go on for ages great vlog again Lee take care
Me and the misses stayed in the indigo hotel Liverpool great stay and had a boss meal at the marco l was blown away ,great review 👍👍👍
i love fish but we dont have anyplace around here that does a good fish and chips in up state ny ,,,but we do have walleye pike that we catch and make with beer bater very mild fish you would like it ,but thats as close we get to englisf F & C but yours looks so much better ty for all your vlogs love them .
8.5 out of 10 Looked great!
Charging 50p for a limeslice seems a bit weird... And i think it’s “not done” to let you pick a serrated knife for such a beautiful steak.
Thanks for your great videos! 💪🏻
Onwards!!
Cracking video again Mac. Great analysis in the car about owners charging extra to cook etc
You can tell Anj didn't go,cozz your suite wasn't pressed
You 2 Herbert's looked like a couple of Tupperwear cold calling salesmen
I bet the big lads missis suffered that night after he pouched that portion of peas
Keep the good work up
Lol. 😂
The steak au poivre looks perfect.
Interesting, having fish and chips as a side dish to that massive serving of peas, lol.
I did like the touch with the steak knives, though.
Loved the steak knives.
I was surprised seeing the menu that they were reasonably priced steaks. Bonus joining the casino to get the extra discount. Steak was cooked lovely, not a fan of skin on fish but personal preference 👍 love the outtakes at the end 😆
Good out takes, well done. Funny...
Oooh I can go one better than you lol, a good few years back I went to one of Marco’s restaurants in London along with a bunch of other food bloggers, and he actually did cook our dinner for us!
The steak was amazeballs 😍 Great vlog Lee keep them coming! x
Loved the out-takes, Lee! LMAO
Looking very dapper Sir. As Darren would say..... "That was off the charts" 🥰🌞🥰xxx
You looked like you were ready for a court appearance at the beginning of the vlog 🤣
Like all "celebrity" places, the food might be good but they are over-rated, over-priced, and over-hyped, you are paying for the name.
that's why I never bother with these sort of places, I just know that I'm paying extra for the name. It's a place to be seen.
That looked fantastic, think it was really fairly priced for the quality. Loved the decor in the restaurant too, crackin meal.
Looked really good that Lee that wasn't expensive either great work
Lee, great video as always mate, yes, the steak looked superb and yes, I agree restaurants don't always get it just right, have to say the fish didn't do so well on the looks but your mate enjoyed it so what the hell. For a bespoke chef's place the bill was pretty reasonable, so results all round. And now the obligatory true story to finish. A fella goes into a butcher's shop and says to the lad "Do you have pig's trotters ?", he answers "Off course Sir", the fella says "Smashing, give me two pies PORKY". Take care buddy and cheerio from Glasgow .
Really impressed at the pricing; as others have said, not too dissimilar to local prices (here in Rutland, you can certainly find mains pitched about the same price point). Certainly not pretentious for the name, at least.
I'm a fussy beggar but that food looked really good. Steak maybe a tiny bit underdone for me as a 'medium' and we don't really like service charges eh guys.
Not answering that phone call could have meant a big loss if someone intended splashing out on expensive meals, wines champagnes though.
Looked nice..
Prices good for a posh
Restaurant run by my top chef.
Enjoyed watching
You both look very smart in your suites xx
Did you find any evidence of a Knorr stock cube in your chow?
Lol. Knorr. 😂 👍🏼
Great review and great great out takes LMAO!
£51.43 is amazingly cheap considering fish and chips delivered to my door cost £66.00.
I was thinking the same thing
Cool@@jenniferforest5400
Steak a tad underdone for me and not sure about the toast underneath!! , but it looked delicious and loved the touch with the knife x
Very nice and I somehow knew you would pick that knife!
Do spice in Verwood , Dorset . Awesome video, steak looked awesome .
I also thought that the price was not too bad concerning the place. The fish looked great 😘😋, I’m one of those people who don’t mind the skin on the fish
Lee, I think this is the best restaurant you've visited yet in the UK. Food looked fantastic. I could of ate both the F&C and your steak. Sharp dress too! Perhaps you should be considered thee replacement for Daniel Craig! 🇬🇧
It looked pretty good, a 9.5 for me.
Looking very dapper here Lee !!! Xx
I want to go here now your looked so nice Lee the one near me is built into the Hilton hotel and there’s no parking I guessed £70 for the bill £50 that’s a good effort 👌
I was expecting crazy prices. looks really good value.
Looking very smart lee 👍🏻
I like my steak eating the garnish,:-) Skin on the fish is a bonus. Been to several M.P.W. establishments and never had a good experience, this looked very good though.
You would have thought in a place like that they would use fresh cut chips not frozen ones I would have marked down for that
That's a 10!
I'm all about a starter, main, dessert and coffee if I'm going for a meal out. Otherwise for me it doesn't feel like a meal out!
You scrub up well matey, food looked great!!! That steak look like it would melt in your mouth.
Michelin starred chefs always seem to have their ups and downs when they go mainstream. What I don't get is the likes of Tom Kerridge who had great success at the hand and flowers. When he collaborated with Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville to open the bull and bear in Manchesters Stock Exchange hotel he offered tiny overpriced burgers, small portions and nothing at all like his pub menu. No wonder Manchester which is my local city struggles to get a Michelin star with that attitude.
I've always liked Marco's places. Yes it does make it better. A decent 8 Lee. Love the outtakes 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Love the suit, was it Moss Bros? 😊 just ribbing you.
I love Marco my second favourite chef. First of course being Keith Floyd, third being Delia.
Hello lee food looked great but the out takes were spot on you would love Bristol with the skate boarders and E scooters.
If you got served those fish and chips in your local you wouldn’t know the difference
Strangely I guessed exactly which knife you were going to pick .... not sure what that means though 🤔 ..... I'll go there sometime given this recommendation
Had a 2 course lunch with a glass of wine 20 years ago at his winchester restaurant,modest portion but very nice...£10.50
Lee , good, honest video. Do you always pay for the food?
That looked really nice. I gave it a 9.1 ..a bit pricey but that's because it's a top quality place. Keep up these good vlogs 👍👍👍
