Kitchin N1

This restaurant was recommended from the hotel i was staying in - Kitchin N1. It sounded different enough with its muliti cuisine offereings so we paid it a visit. I was more curious than anything else.

A group of 4 of us visited the resturant tucked away in Kings Cross on a cold Wednesday evening. We hadnt booked in advance but we still got seated even though they seemed to have a couple of large parties on. The restaurant is stunning & huge dominated by a large central kitchen where the food is freshly cooked.

The food on offer is a variety of chinese, italian, Thai & Indian in buffet and live cooking ( the chinese chef is great ) format all arranged around this central kitchen. You choose the whatever food you want in any combination. On that night I had the indian starters with a chinese noodle dish which I chose the ingredients for and which was then cooked by the chef in front of me - I really liked this feature and by the queue of people waiting for this station other people seemed to think it was good as well. I eventually squeezed in a cheese cheese cake desert to finish off with.

The selection of food I had was lovely - very good value when you think its a starter, main & desert all for 12.95 and on top it eat as much as you like !! The deserts were nice but could do with more of a selection which I mentioned to the waitress. The service was ok. I didnt know what to expect and wasnt to too sure if multi cuisnes would retain the quality and authenticity but I was pleasantly surpised by this restaurant. Overall a great recommendation !!
