Chef Chantelle Nicholson is set to open Apricity on London's Duke Street in March 2022, a restaurant which will pioneer the principles of a circular economy.
This opening will follow the success of her recent Hackney-based ‘pandemic pop-up’ All’s Well, which was set up to preserve jobs, morale and positivity within the industry over the last year.
It will continue Nicholson’s commitment to running a socially conscious endeavour with her team of innovative and like-minded people who share her values of a sustainable lifestyle.
Nicholson is known in London for championing veg-forward sustainable cooking and Apricity will be no different.
She has worked closely with Head Chef Eve Seemann to create a menu that will be centered around hyper-seasonal, sustainable produce from small-scale farmers and locally foraged ingredients, with a zero-waste approach to cooking.
Dishes will include Cornish mackerel and Shetland mussels with sambal butter and pickled pear; roasted Kuri squash with fermented fire flame chilies, miso aioli, squash seed crumb and Thai basil; venison with elderberry and walnut butter; and crispy brussels sprouts with spent beer vinegar and rosemary.
