FISH FRY DAYS

LOCALLY SOURCED DELICIOUSNESS!!

🌿 Freshness You Can Taste – Sourced Daily from the Best

At the heart of our kitchen is a deep commitment to quality, and that begins with the freshest ingredients. we handpick vibrant fruits, crisp vegetables, and fragrant herbs freshly imported from Thailand or directly from New Spitalfields Market, ensuring that only the best seasonal British produce makes it to your plate.

Our seafood is collected fresh from Billingsgate Market, Britain’s most iconic fish market. From ocean-fresh prawns to glistening whole fish, we select only top-grade catches to deliver unmatched flavour and quality.

And for that unmistakable Thai authenticity, we fly in key ingredients directly from Thailand—lemongrass, Kaffir lime leaves, Galangal, Thai basil, and more—so every dish bursts with the genuine flavours of Southeast Asia.

Whether you’re tasting a zesty curry, a fragrant stir-fry, or a fresh seafood special, know that it all starts with ingredients that are truly world-class.

Fresh. Authentic. Exceptional.

🌿 From Garden to Plate 🌿
We’re proud to say that many of the ingredients in our kitchen come straight from our very own walled garden. From freshly picked herbs and vibrant vegetables to seasonal fruit and edible flowers, everything is grown with love and care just steps from our door.

It doesn’t get fresher than this — taste the difference homegrown makes. 🌱🍓🍅
