The Meat Co. – Westfield White City

The Meat Co. (formally The Meat and Wine Co.) has a fully halal food menu + alcohol is served..

Now, considering this is located in Westfield Shopping Centre’s food court, you’d expect the food to be up there especially since the steak costs an eye watering £50.

Potato & onion bread £3.25

Nice tasty accompaniment.

Double Rib Burger

Wasn’t sure what burger to get, and the staff weren’t too helpful either. We opted for the most expensive one there – the Double Rib Burger, not knowing, nor warned by the helpful staff, that double meant some big a** tower. On a positive note, the whole order came in just 10 min with crispy chips that were, in spite of the small portion, very tasty.

The meat seemed to be slow cooked, soft and juicy. Shockingly, however, no cheese!!!

But, for a staggering £26.50, we expected better (certainly not as good as Stax). In truth and as seen below, there was a lot of fat on the meat. Was this premium or left over crap? Overall, a good burger, for what it was.

Rib Burger Fat

Lamb Shank

Despite being a house special, this god forsaken Lamb Shank was probably the worst thing we’ve tasted in ages (that too at £23).

It was so bad that after the first bite, the Lion who ordered it refused to eat it any further – tasteless and full of so much fat that it bordered on sickening.

The chick peas and sauce were just wrong. This should seriously be fed to the owner.

Rib & Mash

The Steak or the Rib & Mash are both amazingly good, and we would recommend getting these over the rest of the menu.

Passion Juice

This passion fruit drink was pretty good though.
