Fallow

Sustainable restaurants in london

The "Fallow" in London is an exceptional restaurant that has made a name for itself with its creative cuisine and strong focus on sustainability. It was founded by chefs Jack Croft and Will Murray, who met during their time at "Dinner by Heston Blumenthal" and later collaborated with experienced restaurateur James Robson. After a successful residency in Heddon Street, which was awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, Fallow finally found its permanent location in St James's Market. The restaurant quickly established itself as one of London's trendiest culinary destinations, thanks to a combination of innovative dishes, a vibrant atmosphere, and a conscious approach to often overlooked ingredients.

The atmosphere at Fallow is lively and modern, with a design that is both stylish and unpretentious. A large, open kitchen with a central counter is the focal point of the space, allowing guests to watch the chefs at work – a detail that makes the team's energy and passion palpable. The decor combines elements like green marble, red leather, and designer lighting, giving the restaurant a touch of sophistication without feeling stuffy. There is also a heated terrace that offers a relaxed alternative in good weather, capturing the vibrant atmosphere of the neighborhood. The noise level is lively but not overwhelming, making Fallow a place suitable for both special occasions and casual visits.

Culinary experiences in london

Culinary-wise, Fallow is known for its "nose-to-tail" philosophy and creative use of seasonal British ingredients. A signature dish is the "Smoked Cod’s Head" with Sriracha butter, an impressive dish that highlights often discarded parts of the fish and convinces with its smoky flavor and spicy sauce – simultaneously making a statement against waste. Equally remarkable is the "Corn Ribs," a vegetarian highlight where corn is cut into rib shapes, fried, and seasoned, making it a perfect companion for cocktails. The "Mushroom Parfait" showcases the versatility of plant-based ingredients: creamy, rich, and with a hint of umami, it elevates the art of vegetable processing to a new level. The dishes are often meant for sharing, promoting communal dining and focusing on variety and enjoyment.

The drinks menu is equally thoughtful, offering a selection of cocktails that complement the dishes perfectly. The "Fig Leaf Negroni" is a favorite – a creative twist on the classic that reflects the restaurant's innovative side with its earthy, fresh taste. The breakfast and brunch offerings are also diverse, with options ranging from hearty to light, allowing for a pleasant start to the day. Fallow places great emphasis on sustainability, such as using seaweed paper for menus or growing mushrooms on-site – details that underscore the commitment to conscious dining without being preachy.

Nevertheless, the team manages to welcome guests and support the lively atmosphere of the place. The ability to provide insights into the kitchen through social media has also helped Fallow build a loyal following that appreciates the transparency and creativity of the concept.
