  • Clio sees ex Pied a Terre head chef serving up modern Greek food on Chiltern Street

    Given the success of places like Maset and The Hart, leaving any space empty for a while on Chiltern Street seems crazy. But now, after being empty for a while, the corner space on the intersection of Chiltern and Paddington streets is gearing up to open. It's going to be Clio, and it'll be a modern Greek restaurant.

    What's particularly interesting about this place is the people involved. The executive chef is Glen Ballis, who's spent a lot of time in Russia but most recently opened INA in Dubai. For this London opening, he's brought in Louis Korovilas who was previously head chef

  • Artisan Greek food and wine is at the heart of Taverna Ermou, opening in Marylebone

    When you already run two Greek delis in London and represent a host of artisanal Greek food producers, then opening a full-blown restaurant is really the next logical step. So that's why ERGON, the group behind the ERGON delis off Regent Street and Westfield London, is about to open Taverna Ermou.

    It'll be the first London outpost of a restaurant that they opened in Athens last year. Open all day, the breakfast menu will include koulouri bagels served with eggs, smoked salmon and Greek yoghurt, along with pancakes, cold-pressed smoothies and bougatsa with sweet or savoury

  • Cantoast Bakery are bringing their Hong Kong inspired French toasts to Marylebone

    If there's one thing we love here at Hot Dinners, it's a new Chinese or Japanese bakery. So we're delighted to bring you news of a hot new opening coming to Marylebone soon.

    Cantoast Bakery have been popping up all over London for the past couple of years. Their USP is a French toast offering using their own milk bread that they then pair with a variety of Asian flavours. Think pandan coconut, golden salted egg and black sesame, along with specials like ube leche flan and mango sago. They've also been doing their own salt breads.

    Behind the bakery is talented baker Haydon

  • Orrery by Pierre Minotti makes an unapologetic pitch for Michelin stars

    You know it's all such hooey when chefs say they don't care about Michelin stars. So we applaud the new chef taking over Marylebone stalwart Orrery, who is making no apologies for saying that his ambition is to get Michelin recognition.

    Pierre Minotti (formerly at Alex Dilling at Hotel Cafe Royal) is so convinced of his offering that he's putting his name on the restaurant and it'll now be known as Orrery by Pierre Minotti. And now we can exclusively reveal his grand plans for the restaurant.

    To start with, there will be a promenade element, as we've seen in places like

  • After 50 years Sale e Pepe is expanding with Sale e Pepe Mare at The Langham London

    It's been a troubled few years at The Langham, which has struggled to find a solid proposition for its main restaurant space since Roux at the Landau closed back in 2023. They did try to follow that with Mimosa from French group Moma, but that folded after a scant five months of service.

    But news today suggests that a new lease of life for the restaurant may be just around the corner. The Thesleff Group, who run Los Mochis and Sale e Pepe in Knightsbridge, are taking over the space. They're planning a seafood iteration of the Knightsbridge restaurant, Sale e Pepe Mare. That makes
