A new restaurant boasting Michelin star credentials is set to open on the edge of Chinatown. Higher Ground, which started out as a pop-up, will be one of the most eagerly awaited restaurants to hit the city when it opens next year.
It will be run by the team behind Flawd, the wine shop and restaurant in New Islington. The spot received a rave review from the Sunday Times critic Marina O’Loughlin over the weekend, who called its cooking ‘glorious’.
The new space, which is owned by developers Bruntwood, will be on the corner of New York Street and Faulkner Street, and is looking at a February/March opening next year. It will be launched by founders Richard Cossins, Daniel Craig Martin and chef Joe Otway.
