Bamboo Mat Stratford

At its venues in Leyton and Stratford, Bamboo Mat is slinging out a range of mouthwatering Nikkei dishes. Not only can you get delightful sushi rolls (including ones that are flame-torched at your table), but also ceviche, chicken antiucho and ox cheeks with yuzu potato puree.

Prelude By Oriole

Serving up sophisticated fusion fare, Prelude By Oriole is giving us a taste of things to come at their permanent reopening later this year. Expect tasty small plates like raw scallops with kiwi, beef tartare and chickpea chips with aioli dip, as well as a range of premium spirits and internationally-inspired cocktails. This speakeasy-style spot has got live piano music every night too.
