Word on the street - well, the west London street - is that Graze is the new black when it comes to grazing and drinking. It's an eighties-band style re-launch - this place used to be the Otto Dining Lounge. |

Brought to you by the team who own 1 Lombard Street and noble rot. (which is creatively but ultimately annoyingly spelled with a full stop), Graze has an eclectic anytime-anywhere menu, served in both restaurant and bar, delivering such delights as the signature dish of Herdwick Mutton with Lavender Sauce and pumpkin roulade with orange-flower water. The cast list feels like a movie: Jamie Grainger-Smith, General Manager, established Fifteen with Jamie Oliver; Head Chef Sebastien Gagnebé is ex-La Trouvaille, and the whole acquisition/revamp was masterminded by Søren Jessen, Oliver Peyton's main backer at The Atlantic Bar and Grill. |
