Half a dozen Maldon rock oysters with Chardonnay pickled shallots
Sicilian prawns - crudo – lemon oil & Maldon sea salt
Cantabrian anchovies, sourdough & seaweed butter

A small number of people, a small number of bottles, fantastic cuisine, first-class service and the usual lively cross-table banter – you could not ask for more. Prices are extremely reasonable within the current inflationary climate. If you are a Burgundy lover with time in London, then this restaurant has to be one of your first ports of call.
