This Christmas, Heliot Steak House, the award-winning restaurant inside The Hippodrome, is celebrating the festive season with the launch of its one-of-a-kind Break the Bank Dinner. A six-course feast made of the finest ingredients sourced from around the world, paired with some of the finest wines, the menu is the perfect way to celebrate a lucky win on the roulette wheel and an excellent early Christmas gift for steak lovers.
Created by executive head chef Ioannis Grammenos, the menu is priced at £1,000 per person and includes two types of the finest beef; a USDA prime fillet wellington with white Alba truffle and a Barolo wine sauce, and Hokkaido snow beef with morel mushrooms and a smoked bone marrow sauce. The dinner will open with a host of canapés followed by a starter course of five dishes, all made with a selection of the best ingredients that money can buy such as Alaskan king crab and Beluga caviar. To finish, the menu includes a further five desserts, hand-made by the kitchen team including a decadent chocolate cylinder coated in gold leaf and white and silver chocolate truffles. Each course will be personally introduced by the chef, giving diners the chance to find out more about the cuts of steak and other special ingredients on their plate.
The drinks menu to accompany the meal has been chosen by Heliot’s in-house sommelier Salvatore Russo, and is made up of wines and champagnes from some of the finest vineyards including Champagne Pommery, Domaine Roulot, Chateau Talbot and Château d’Yquem.
A host of money-can’t-buy treats are also included in the experience. Guests can choose from a VIP greeting and tour with Hippodrome Casino owner Simon Thomas, an exclusive show from in-house entertainers, a ‘learn to play’ gaming experience and a carriage home in Heliot’s luxury limousine.
Hippodrome Casino owner Simon Thomas comments that: “We like to do things a little differently here, and we’re always the first to celebrate a big win on the tables alongside our customers. So we wanted to give guests the opportunity to really spoil themselves and their loved ones with a meal they won’t forget for years to come.
“This is the perfect way to celebrate for those winning big this Christmas. For steak and wine lovers I can’t think of a better treat.”
Heliot Steak House provides a unique dining experience in heart of London, enjoying a rare view overlooking the most popular casino gaming floor in the country, and is a great a place to relax and enjoy a meal in a fun environment followed by a show in the 180-seat Cabaret theatre.
