A restaurant where every dish is a surprise on a ten-course tasting menu has been named one of the top 20 most exciting in Britain. Notts-born chef Tom Sellers opened Restaurant Story in London in 2013.
The Good Food Guide placed the restaurant in 11th place, with L’Enclume in Cumbria taking top spot and Ynyshir in Ceredigion, Wales, coming second. The announcement was made at a ceremony at the Groucho Club in Soho.
At two-Michelin starred Restaurant Story, a 40-seater venue in Bermondsey, diners are not presented with a menu on arrival for the ten-course tasting menu costing £225 a head. They are served a mix of classic Story dishes and new and seasonally-inspired classics. One of the signature dishes is a beef dripping candle.
