Review on Geales
Geales seafood restaurant first opened its doors in Notting Hill way back in 1939, and now it's back with a brand new look and new hands on the tiller. Mark Fuller and Andy Taylor the talented duo behind the Concept Venues re-launched this old stager in May 2007 and have jazzed up the interior: it's been likened to a 'chic beach hut' with pale grey walls, antique mirrors and gingham cloths on the tables.
The menu has also received a minor facelift although fish and chips is still the main deal: daily supplies from the West Country ensure top quality cod, hake, haddock and more besides; the chips are hand-cut, the onion rings are fried in beef dripping, and the tartare sauce is homemade. Added to that are a few modern ideas like Thai soft-shell crabs, lobster spaghetti or salmon and leek fishcakes, but it's back to the nursery for jam roly-poly and treacle tart. Champagne tops the wine list, along with a decent spread of global names and a dozen tipples by the glass.
