It's a fantastic pop-up, with excellent food in a really memorable space.  Richard cooks behind the counter of the shop, using a hot box and a built-in cooker, and is able to cook for the 16 or so guests this way with aplomb.

He has been doing these nights since November, cooking on a small charcoal grill within the wine store, and turning out the most amazing steaks, langoustines and more.  It’s literally the sort of thing that I started LondonPopUps to write about back in 2011, and it’s great to see such quality dining in the relatively unlikely setting of a wine shop in E17.When - Wednesday to Friday evenings til 2nd February 2024
