🌟 Brat London | Wait… A British Restaurant That’s Actually GOOD?!
Turns out Brat (sister to Michelin-starred Mountain) isn’t Spanish—it’s a Basque-inspired British countryside eatery with a star of its own! 🤯 Both share similar dishes but with unique twists… and both are stupidly delicious. 📅 Booking Tip: Even our 3PM slot was packed—book days ahead for prime times! Seasonal menus mean no scallops/mushrooms for us (RIP 💔). Check their site before trekking across town! 🍽 Hits: 🦪 Oyster w/ Cucumber & Seaweed Zingy, lightly spicy, with cucumber’s crunch cutting the oceanic funk. A bright, sweet-finish masterpiece! 🌊✨ 🍞 Bread & Burnt Onion Butter Crusty outside, cloud-like inside—that smoky onion butter + flaky salt? Carb heaven. 🧈🔥 🐂 Beef Tartare Silky beef + crunchy garlic + black sesame. Purple cabbage adds bitter balance. Elegant yet bold! 🦐 Langoustines Jelly-like tenderness with charred sweetness. Sauce so good we licked the plate via bread! 🍤💋 🍚 Grilled Squid & Sobrasada Rice Crispy squid meets paprika-kissed socarrat rice. Pickled peppers + onions = perfect tang. 🦑🍚 🥔 Smoked Potatoes Crisp jackets, fluffy insides—potato purity at its finest. 🍰 Burnt Cheesecake & Apricot Dense but lemony-fresh. Good… but Lurra’s still my Basque cheesecake king. 👑 (PS: Eat same-day—fridge = tragedy 😭) 🚫 Miss: 🌶️ Grilled Red Peppers (Meh texture, skip.) 💰 Damage: £158 for two (£79pp) 📍 Brat 4 Redchurch St, London E1 6JL 🔥 Vibe: Rustic-chic with open kitchen drama Loud but lively—great for groups Basque meets British farmhouse #LondonEats #MichelinStar #BritishFoodDoneRight #HiddenGem #FoodieAdventure
