Forster’s distinguished career, forged at The Savoy and honed in Michelin-starred kitchens such as Régis et Jacques Marcon near Lyon, defines this evolution. His approach marries British clarity with French rigour, creating a menu that celebrates provenance, seasonality and simplicity elevated by technique. Holder of National Chef of the Year 2011 and Master of Culinary Arts (MCA), Forster leads 190 Queen’s Gate with confidence and craft.
“Embodying a quintessentially British ethos, our new à la carte menu is rooted in sustainability and true provenance, where every dish captures the local journey of each and every ingredient,” says Forster. “The menu presents a modern expression of timeless opulence, where technique and flavour come together with purpose.”
The opening autumn menu highlights Orkney scallops with smoked sausage and ginger emulsion, a tart of leek and Yoredale Wensleydale, and Norfolk Black chicken with Wiltshire autumn truffles. Each ingredient is sustainably sourced from trusted suppliers across the UK, and the restaurant’s English wine selection champions local producers.
Guests can experience the new menu in the elegant 190 Queen’s Gate restaurant, where artwork, gilded mirrors and soft lighting create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and intimate.
Stefano Squecco, Cluster General Manager, adds: “We are incredibly proud to unveil this new chapter for 190 Queen’s Gate. The Gore London has long been synonymous with culture, creativity and craftsmanship, values that are perfectly reflected in Frederick’s culinary philosophy. The à la carte menu is an exciting evolution that we believe will delight our guests.”
