Bank

You are likely to enjoy your finest meal at this relatively new restaurant, which is winning friends among the more discriminating palates of Birmingham. Affiliated with its even more famous sibling in London, chefs work feverishly in the open-plan kitchen. Start perhaps with seared scallops with asparagus or a confit of duck leg with a sesame-and-honey dressing. For a main dish, you can sample such superb choices as ricotta gnocchi with roasted eggplant, zucchini, and Parma ham, or the roast marinated duck breast with potato Rösti and blueberry jus. Desserts include a classic English bread-and-butter pudding or a passion-fruit mousse. Bank features the best children's menu in town.
