- Dishoom launches new kitchens to deliver across London
As restaurants re-open, there's always the possibility that some of the delivery services we've come to enjoy will actually start to close. That's because running a full restaurant and a delivery service concurrently is quite the effort - particularly when a lot of focus needs to be on the people dining-in.
But if you've been worried that Dishoom's new deliveries will stop then worry no more. They've

- Gallio pizza brings in Norma's Ben Tish for a mould-breaking delivery menu
A new pizza company about to hit London are claiming that their pizzas are devised specifically to relieve that bloated post-pizza feeling. Gallio are using only ancient grains to make their pizza bases. Apparently those olde grains are high in protein and antioxidants and more easily digestible than newer flours.
Just as interesting as the pizza dough itself is the pizzeria's decision to bring in Norma chef Ben Tish for some of the menu as a

- Kaké by Chisou brings both high-end delivery & a dine-in omakase feast to Chelsea
13/7/20 - updated with info on the dine-in offereing
With delivery becoming bigger than ever, it's not at all surprising that some London restaurants have started catering to the luxury end of the market. Enter Kaké by Chisou - a new high-end option for the Chelsea set.
As a spin-off from Chisou's sushi restaurant, it started as a delivery-only option before getting ready to launch as an
... - Plate up the perfect at home dinner with The Waterhouse Project's ceramics and tutorials
With so many restaurants in London reopening for deliveries, it's hard to get noticed. But one Hackney spot has, we think, got quite an unusual proposition.
The Waterhouse Project opened its doors for the first time just pre-lockdown. Its owner, chef Gabriel Waterhouse (ex-Galvin La Chapelle) had just moved from a supperclub scenario, to what he was calling 'social fine dining' in a permanent restaurant in East

- Tom Aikens launches Musette delivery service from his Belgravia restaurant
Over in Belgravia, chef and restaurateur Tom Aikens had just started to see amazing reviews come in for his new restaurant Muse, just before lockdown hit. You can read our Test Drive here.
The restaurant is almost entirely counter dining, making it pretty hard to accommodate the new socially distant rules, so it

- Nourished Communities sells farmers market produce from its Canonbury shop
Folks who live in or around Canonbury in Islington may have spotted what looks to be a rather unusual installation in the window at high-end furniture store Coexistence on Canonbury Lane.
It turns out that the shop has been supporting a company called Nourished Communities, which stepped in to look after suppliers affected by the closure of farmers' markets in London during the lockdown.
The premise is simple - instead of trying

When many of us were working in London offices, Pret was often invaluable come lunchtime. Now that many (or most) of us are working from home, Pret's looking for new ways to get our attention and their upcoming evening delivery menu is a way of doing just that.
It'll be available from 5pm (from 7 July) with a few new dishes available.
On the menu will be salad bowls, including the Chipotle Chicken
... - The Supermarket of Dreams brings restaurant DIY kits and more to Notting Hill
Over in Notting Hill, there's been an addition to the food shop scene that's a lot more interesting than getting a new Tesco Metro.
The Supermarket of Dreams opened up last month. It's from the same team as the Notting Hill Fish Shop and it's selling all manner of lovely artisan food and - the real usp - meals and DIY kits from restaurants across London.
The launch line-up for those restaurant kits is impressive with items
