Sethi continues to introduce unusual and high creative wines to the stable of restaurants – which this year will be joined by a new BAO, at London Bridge. Gizzi Erskine & Rosemary Ferguson Co-founders, F!LTH The two women behind the Filth brand were already very influential in their fields – Erskine has a highly successful career as a food writer, author, chef and TV personality, while Ferguson is in huge demand as a nutritionist, which is already her second career after years as a fashion personality. Filth, the vegan fast- food brand they invented and ran as a pop-up at the Tate gallery last year, has exploded in terms of recognition and success. It is currently operating out of the Dirty Burger site in Shoreditch, garnering queues and huge numbers of social media posts. But far more important than that is the genuine research- and-development skill the duo have brought to the burgers – showing the way to a healthier Issue 18 | Spring 2019 codehospitality.co.uk but still fun way to eat. -14- Claire Warner new entry Head of new brands, Seedlip Drinks Warner joined Seedlip last year as head of new brands and has already got a major new launch underway.

  • London Food Guide: 2
    A Short Guide To London Restaurants By Kit Hume, Rob Hume, and Judy Milhous 15th Edition Revised July 2009 What follows was originally written in 1984 after a year’s sabbatical in London. It has been revised every couple of years since then, reflecting our experience dining out several times a week during a sabbatical from August 1990 to August 1991, half a year in 1995, sabbaticals in 1997-98 and 2004-05, and numerous short visits in the intervening years. The basic organization of this guide is geographical. Some of the restaurants are new to this edition; others have been in since the original 1984 edition, and have been revisited with pleasure every year since then. We retain a few places we have not visited recently because friends have enjoyed them and The Good Food Guide continues to rate them highly. If you look for an old favorite from our previous guides and no longer find it listed, it has probably perished. Rodos closed in the spring of 2003: second generation owners failed to keep it viable. Poons is no more. We still sigh over both those extinctions. Note that Chez Nico and La Tante Claire passed into memory when their chefs retired. Prices are given in current British pounds, the £ being worth roughly $1.65 at the time of writing. London continues to be a fantastic place to eat out, but inflation and the mediocre exchange rate have made it less of a bargain. One of the best buys in London is still Indian food. If you are unfamiliar with this cuisine (and Indian menus can be dauntingly unhelpful), see the Appendix for some basic definitions and explanations.
