Chateaubriand at The Honours

Honours Chateaubriand

Good food lovers were thrilled when the award-winning chef Martin Wishart opened The Honours in Glasgow’s Malmaison last year. With a stunning domed ceiling; vibrant murals of Glasgow’s industrial heritage and superlative service, The Honours is a cosmopolitan, city centre brasserie. Their best selling dish on the menu is their chateaubriand, a magnificent 500g piece of the finest Donald Russell grass fed, dry aged steak cooked on the kitchen’s charcoal-fuelled Josper oven served with crispy duck fat chips, fried onion rings, green salad and sauce Béarnaise. Our 5pm Christmas gift is for two people to enjoy the chateaubriand along with a bottle of wine and tea or coffee to finish.
