Three years ago we planted two acres of asparagus in our farm. Last year we didn't get much crop but this year its amazing. I have never seen so much asparagus in my life.We started the deliveries to London this week and there is asparagus all over the menu.
Come and try the new dishes.

Our cousins who make the wonderful Potentino wine we serve in the Restaurant and Club are running their pop-up restaurant at Frontline every first Sunday of the month.
This is their latest email with news from the vineyard and announcing the menu for Sunday 5th December: Hearty Food for Valiant Olive Pickers.
Please book directly with Alexander by emailing potentino.bookings@me.com.
We are being flooded out of the olive groves at the moment but when the sun shines all are in shirt sleeves up the ladders. Soon, the cold Tramontana wind from Siberia will start blowing in with crystal clear blue skies and everyone rushes inside to get as close as possible to the fire, where the new oil and bruschetta and garlic are very popular. This menu is for that hunger.
