Irina Linovich's new plant-based venue on Portobello Road features a main ground floor dining area with a cocktail bar, an outside terrace, and a 50-cover capacity. Executive chef Daniel Watkins, co-founder of Dalston’s ACME Fire Cult, leads the kitchen with a plant-first menu focusing on 'fire and ferments’. Dishes will include ‘Sexy Tofu’, Asparagus, citrus & coconut butter and Matcha ‘tiramisu’. The restaurant partners with A Bar With Shapes For A Name for a cocktail list and Ania Smelskaya for an all-natural wine list. The interiors, designed by Linovich and Al-Jawad Pike, is earthy in tone.
