Rockfish, Devon
Cinnamon
Kitchen, Leeds
Just steps from Leeds station,
Vivek Singh’s first venture
outside London draws on the
grandeur of Indian railway
dining and the 3,790km route
covered by legendary train the
Himsagar Express. Think Old
Delhi-style butter chicken and
lamb rogan josh shepherd’s pie.
An easy one to get on board
with. cinnamon-kitchen.com

Brixham market – in line
with Mitch Tonks’ seasonal,
sustainable ethos. Next up?

Ceviche topped with chilli granita... chupe de jaiba (crab gratin)... dulce
de leche flan with banana compote and salted hazelnuts... This is
Chilean cuisine as you’ve never tasted it – spanning the Atacama Desert
to Patagonia – conceived by the powerhouse that is Carolina Bazán and
executed by Trinidad Vial Della Maggiora (one to watch). mareida.co.uk
Town, London WC2
Modern bistros and brasseries – chic and
a little NYC – are a serious business in London
in 2025. After Lita, One Club Row and The
Dover comes Town, chef Stevie Parle’s new
place in Covent Garden, full of lacquer, crudo,
fine steaks and celebrities (Gary Lineker,
Bella Freud and Professor Green are already
fans). The dining room’s a triumph. Opening
soon is a bar downstairs for cocktails, snacks
and – one can only imagine – parties you
wish you were invited to. town.restaurant
