Pizza Pilgrims, Flesh & Buns and Tommi’s Burger Joint open in London reports LondonTown.com

(TRAVPR.COM) UK - August 1st, 2013 - Proving that the trend for pop-ups to go permanent is set to continue, new London restaurants due to launch in August 2013 include Pizza Pilgrims, Flesh & Buns and Tommi’s Burger Joint, and foodies who want to be among the first to sample London’s latest restaurants can choose from a number of hotels in London’s Covent Garden and Soho areas and stay the night in town.

The much-anticipated Pizza Pilgrims restaurant launches at 11-12 Dean Street in Soho on Thursday 1st August 2013 around the corner from their Berwick Street market spot. Pizza Pilgrims James and Thom Elliot offer Londoners Napoli-style pizzas from what, on first sight, looks like a take-out restaurant but once downstairs more tables are revealed.

Decorated with green and white checked tablecloths and various artworks – including a drawing of their van on a number of pizza boxes – there is also a fussball table which has been custom made with an image mapping out James and Thom’s Italian pilgrimage.

There’s an alcove within the restaurant which fits roughly 15 people making it ideal for parties. Wine and Prosecco are on tap and pizzas are charged at around £8-£9. LondonTown.com readers will get the chance to win a copy of their book, ‘Pizza Pilgrims: Recipes from the Backstreets of Italy’ (RRP £20), when they enter the competition on the website.

Also opening in Soho in August is Flesh and Buns, the second London opening from chef proprietor Ross Shonhan who brought us the ever-popular ramen restaurant Bone Daddies. Flesh and Buns opens on Earlham Street on 8th August 2013.

Tommi’s Burger Joint, from Icelandic restaurateur Tomas ‘Tommi’ Tomasson, opens at 30 Thayer Street, Marylebone on the first weekend of August. If follows recent London openings of American burger chains Five Guys, at 1 Long Acre, and Shake Shack London in the heart of Covent Garden.

Late in the month, Grillshack by renowned restaurant entrepreneur Richard Caring (who brought us Pizza East and Chicken Shop and who owns Caprice Holdings - parent to exclusive London restaurants such as The Ivy, Le Caprice and Scott's) is due to open on the Beak Street site where the Alphabet bar stood since the late 1990s. Caring has teamed up with Mark Askew, formerly of Gordon Ramsay Holdings, who will return to the kitchen to run the casual grill restaurant with counter service.

Two years after winning MasterChef, American-born Tim Anderson opens Nanban on Shoreditch High Street serving southern Japanese food, ramen, beer, chicken, cake, and other lovely things. Specialising in the regional cuisine of Kyushu Island, where Anderson lived for two years, Naban gets its name from the Japanese term once used to describe European settlers – meaning ‘southern barbarian’. He’s hoping for a late August launch.
