When we arrived to the Tate's we were starving. Before rushing up to the exhibition floors we headed for the Tate Modern Cafe.
We were seated by the tables by the window towards the Thames with direct view to the St. Paul's Cathedral. After we were directed to the table by the host a waiter came to take our orders, another bloke came with drinks, the fourth one cleaned the table and the fifth one took the orders for the deserts. I guess that's Taylorism in the restaurant branch..

Tate Modern Cafe. A bit costly food for the best of the Art. |
|
Fish & Chips for the son. W/ horse raddish & mushed peas. £11.50 |
|
Pumpkin & beetroot salad. For the disappointment for my daughter, pumpkins were a bit raw. £6.50 |
|
Blackberry Cheesecake 4 my daughter as a desert. £5.25. |
|
Daily Fish was gorgeously cooked creamy cod with veggies. I've lived in
Norway and eaten loads of god - and this was excellent. £23.90 for two. |
|
Dbl espresso for £2.20 was a bit disappointment. Lacked the character and was pretty lame. |
|
This was special! No Coke or Pepsi, but an organic Cola fermented naturally. Great taste of ginger and for us Finns it gave a slight aroma of home brew (kotikalja). £2.75 for a bottle. |
|
God did not have any sidedish. I chose free salad. Sweet lemon-vinegar sauce made it special. |
|
My daughter with her pie (above) & machiato £1.90 |
|
With the dishes above and 37.5 cl French Viognier white (a bit disappointment) and ice cream the total sum rounded up to £94.33 (it includes 12.5% service charge).
Definetly overpriced but it did not hurt. After all, it was the first meal with my daughter for ages - and what would be the better place for paying extra than an art museum and give some extra for the culture.
