Fay Maschler's week in food, from The Hunter’s Moon to Volta do Mar

Fay Maschler27 November 2019

Founders of new pub The Hunter’s Moon, where I try roast Cornish hake with ’nduja risotto, are Oliver Marlowe and Hubert Beatson-Hird. Is it their friends who bray, bawl and bellow or just Fulham locals?

After an Early Opera Company concert of Purcell, Handel and Albinoni at St Stephen’s Walbrook, a perfect snack of deep-fried plaice on rye at Ekte in Bloomberg Arcade.

Chef James Cochran’s signature snack of buttermilk jerk spiced chicken with scotch bonnet jam has travelled triumphantly to 12:51, his Islington restaurant.

Thrilled to meet Ed Cumming and Rhik Samadder for Sri Lankan lunch at Kolamba in Soho. I steer Rhik towards his first egg hopper.

At Volta do Mar, Simon and Isabel Mullins’s new Covent Garden Portuguese-y place, Arroz Marisco.
