Having opened in May 2009, Paul Kitching’s opulent restaurant was awarded a Michelin star the following January. The contemporary dining room and open kitchen are housed in an elegant Georgian townhouse but the food is cutting edge modern. Expect the unexpected from the daily changing menu. Chinese style fish was the deceptively straightforward description of a complex dish from a recent menu. It’s bold, adventurous, sometimes baffling and a unique experience although Kitching claims to have calmed his more extravagant tendencies of late.
