TOM AIKENS RELAUNCHES TOM’S KITCHEN CHELSEA
The highly-acclaimed British chef, Tom Aikens, has now
relaunched his flagship Tom’s Kitchen restaurant in Chelsea.
Following an extensive refurbishment, Tom has introduced
an exciting new menu offering seasonal British small plates,
perfect to be shared with family and friends.
Tom’s Kitchen Chelsea first opened in 2006 as a contemporary
all-day brasserie, serving British favourites and comfort food
classics in a relaxed and informal environment. Twelve years
on, the restaurant’s exciting renewal brings a welcoming,
modern and comfortable feel to the interiors; the perfect match
for Tom’s contemporary British menus.
The new sharing-style menu at Tom’s Kitchen Chelsea will
constantly evolve, allowing Tom and his team to make the most
of the short seasons of some of Britain’s finest produce, such
as asparagus, rhubarb, mushrooms and game. From the menu,
small plates such as Cumbrian beef tartare with black garlic
aioli, new season turnips and puffed rice and Charred celeriac,
cured duck breast and hazelnuts, will be followed by sharing
dishes including Charred squid, rocket and watercress salsa
verde and Spatchcock Norfolk quail with peanut sauce, pickled
sweet cucumber and buttermilk.
Those looking for comfort food dishes and Tom’s Kitchen
classics will be able to choose from Fish pie with cider, leeks and
parsley crumb; Chateaubriand with onion tart and peppercorn
sauce; and TK Seven-hour slow cooked shoulder of lamb hot
pot.
