Este
Seafood Mexican
A converted bungalow on Manor Road hosts Este, where contemporary Mexican seafood cooking unfolds in a relaxed, assured setting. Ceviche arrives luminous with turmeric broth; whole fish emerges from banana leaves with hoja santa salsa; corn cake arrives studded with candied hazelnuts and brown butter. The kitchen moves with confidence between the subtle and the vivid.
