90 Highcross Street, Leicester, LE1 4NN
The Grosvenor Casino in Leicester is a glamorous and sophisticated dining destination. Here, the peckish and parched can choose between a restaurant offering a menu full of dishes with contemporary twists, and the only 24-hour sports bar and lounge in Leicester that boasts a full-HD 100-inch screen, as well as a great selection of beers and its own American-inspired menu of burgers, wings and a loaded hot dog.
The casino's restaurant is a must-visit, and is lit in a considered way to create an elegant atmosphere. Banquette seating, a central round table with high stools that wouldn't look out of place on the set of Ocean's 11 and a sumptuous colour scheme of rich reds and purples all combine to create a comfortable and inviting setting.
Once settled with a glass of bubbly in hand, try a starter of ravioli parcels crammed with wild mushrooms and pumpkin, served in a light, creamy tomato sauce and garnished with rocket, roasted cherry tomatoes and Parmesan. If you really like the sound of this delicious dish, then you're in luck, as it can also be served as a main course. Other mains includes grills and steaks, like the 8oz premium, dry-aged sirloin with crispy skin-on fries, a grilled mushroom and tomato, watercress and beer-battered onion rings, and internationally inspired options like the delicate, aromatic and deliciously light choice of steamed sea bass with chilli, ginger and soy sauce, served on a bed of Chinese-style vegetables and accompanied with steamed rice. Alternatively, hang the diet and go all out with a dessert of rich and decadent chocolate caramel tart, slightly salted and served with vanilla ice cream and toffee sauce, to complete a superb evening's dining. After that, you might wish to wind down and begin the journey home, although a chilled glass of white and a good gossip in the lounge will never let you down. When you do return to your abode, don't forget that you can stay in touch by following the Grosvenor team on Facebook (www.facebook.com/GrosvenorGLeicester) and Twitter (@LeicesterGC)
