Tom's Kitchen

Tom Aikens follows his swish restaurant in nearby Elystan Street with the more casual Tom's Kitchen close to the Kings Road. It's a more relaxed affair with a butcher's block and an open kitchen offering curious diners an insight into the mechanics of the machine. Open for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, it's a hard working place serving everything from sophisticated nose-to-tail cuts of meat to simple (and fantastic) fry-ups - or you can pop into the 'Games Room' for a cocktail. Simple ingredients, plain presentation and lots of comfort food have proved a winning formula. Opt for the pan fried foie gras with bacon and duck egg, follow with the spit roast shoulder of lamb for a full-on meaty meal, and complement with sides of mashed potato, savoy cabbage with bacon or parsnips. Or just opt for a macaroni cheese - reputated to be the best in London.
