The Jam Tree (Chelsea)

Tuesday, May 10, 2011 - The Duck Leg (slow roasted) when it hopped up seemed to me to be a classic confit duck leg but there's nothing wrong with that. The meat was tender and the skin crispy, the two things that have to be right. The salad of Puy lentils had a rather crude lump of red onion sitting on it but was otherwise a correct accompaniment to an essentially French dish...The menu makes no apology for offering something for everyone, the ambience is cool and the staff pleasantly unprofessional, in a good way, and relaxed. The Asian side seems to be stronger than the others, although the burgers did look good as they went past.
