Best New London Restaurants: Opening July 2016

---

Bao Fitzrovia



Specialising in Scandi smoking techniques for both food and drink, this looks set to be one of the hottest openings of the summer. Opening off the back of Rök's phenomenal success in Shoreditch, which is adored by Jay Rayner and Grace Dent, all the produce is sourced in Britain, but they specialise in brined and cured meats, cooked on fire alongside fermented and preserved seasonal produce.

Strut and Cluck, Shoreditch



Shoreditch's latest opening is a rare bird indeed: This new Eastern Mediterranean opening proves turkeys aren't just for Christmas. Get here quickly before the rest of London cottons on and the prices sore.

Foley's, Fitzrovia



We love The Palomar, so it's very exciting that the sous chef, Mitz Vora, has spread his wings to become head chef of Foley's, which describes itself as "Modern World" food inspired by the spice trail.

Our advice: sit at a counter to get in on the action and chat with the chefs.

Chicama London, Chelsea



Visitors to London's top Peruvian restaurant Pachamama will be delighted to hear that its founders are heading to the streets of Chelsea to open their latest establishment. This time, it's carrying on the tradition of top-notch Peruvian cuisine, but with a twist; there's no meat on the menu.

Casita Andina, Soho



Fans of Martin Morales' Ceviche restaurants will be thrilled to hear that on 28th July he is opening a new restaurant on Great Windmill Street. Inspired by the local restaurants of the Andes – hence the name – it aims to be a 'picanteria', a home from home in the middle of London. The drinks list - pisco sours ahoy! - should also be quite special.
