After reporting back in July that acclaimed restaurant company Salt Yard Group are to open their fourth London site, the group has now announced that the new site will be called Ember Yard.
Opening on Berwick Street in Soho at the beginning of Soho, the new venue will be headed up by Jacques Fourie who has worked as sous chef at Salt Yard for five years. The site will feature a menu inspired by Spanish and Italian methods of cooking over charcoal. Almost the entire menu will therefore be cooked on a custom-built charcoal fired grill which will serve as the centre piece to the open plan kitchen.
Salt Yard Groups co-founded Simon Mullins said: 'We had the idea for this restaurant several years ago and are thrilled to see it finally come to fruition. There’s something primal about the method and flavours of cooking over charcoal and Ember Yard will be a unique and exciting take on this back to basics approach.”
Salt Yard Groups other three restaurants are: Opera Tavern, Salt Yard and Dehesa.
