L'Hotel Gitan

L'Hotel Gitan The Reymond family's latest adventure. A French inspired gastro pub located in one of Prahran's icon
(665)

L’Hotel Gitan is the Reymond family’s latest hospitality offering. Positioned in one of Prahran’s most iconic pubs, L’Hotel Gitan offers a casual dining experience that will satisfy all preferences. Reinterpreting the idea of a neighbourhood pub, the hotel has been extensively remodelled by award-winning SJB Architects, and now offers flavoursome, well-prepared food complemented with a well-equipped wine list. Inspired by its art deco roots, the interiors are elegant and comfortable. Exuding a warm aesthetic with a sense of nostalgia, L’Hotel Gitan has a casual bar area with high tables and a fireplace, a warm bistro with banquette seating, an outside terrace with awnings, and an upstairs event space. At the heart of the hotel is an open kitchen where whole pigs rotate on a rotisserie, crepes are flipped and charcuterie is sliced to order. Pop in for a drink, try a freshly sliced plate of chacuterie, or tuck into a full French cuisine – it’s that simple. The specials menu changes regularly, based on seasonal ingredients and the chef’s inspiration, so you can always expect something different at L’Hotel Gitan.

Winter calls for something a little indulgent. Enter: the lamb cutlet en crépinette.

Chef Chris wraps it in a delicate veil, sears it till it crackles, then rests it next to couscous, merguez, and a zucchini relish that keeps things bright. Harissa jus finishes it and your new favourite dish reveals itself.

Book a table and let the cold weather work in your favour.
