Refined riff on Mexican flavour: scallop ceviche with persimmon and roasted sweetcorn
(Picture: Sim Canetty-Clarke)A new restaurant and bar due to open in early February is set to continue London’s love affair with Mexican cuisine. In the wake of recent hit Mexican openings — Kol, El Pastor Soho and Cavita among them — Zapote will open on Leonard Street in early February.
On the menu, Zapote looks to be offering a refined riff of classic Mexican flavours. The menu will offer the likes of beef tartare and bone marrow tacos, scallop ceviche with persimmon and roasted sweetcorn, charred lamb neck with aubergine and tamarind tortillas, and grey mullet recado rojo with grilled corn and smoked cod’s roe.
