Fourth dimension Out says

A spin-off of the popular 'wild' food Notting Colina restaurant 'Shed', with a focus on olfactory organ-to-tail eating.

'Rabbit', as Chas 'n' Dave fans know, is Cockney rhyming slang for 'talk'. And customers of Rabbit, a new eatery on the Rex's Road, excel at talking – plus shouting, hooting with laughter and mostly making a lot of noise. This is Chelsea, where some view town as a place to political party and state where you go to recover at mum and dad'southward. On our visit, some customers even gave high-fives to the Gladwin brothers, the chef-proprietors (who returned the overfamiliar Americanism).

We're not sure what real country folk volition brand of Rabbit'southward jokey, 'rustic' interior, but every bit Oliver, Richard and Gregory Gladwin hail from West Sussex farmland themselves, we imagine they didn't accept trouble sourcing the tractor bonnet decorating the bar, the corrugated iron panelling, or the back terminate of a pull a fast one on mounted on a wall. It feels more similar a bar that does food, downwards to the 'stable door' archway where smokers tin can linger outside. But to see information technology as a party venue does the cooking a disservice: the Gladwins – who as well run The Shed in Notting Loma – can actually cook.

The 'minor plates' menu lets you try at least ii or three per person. A 'mouthful' (appetiser) of 'dark-brown crab bomb, lemon dulse' set the scene for cooking of great technical prowess, with a crisp beat out containing the warm crustacean centre, held in identify on the plate by a seashore-scented lemon mayonnaise.

Rabbit ravioli was the best dish, meat tender, pasta al dente but glossed with os marrow, lovage pesto and wild mushrooms. Foraged and wild ingredients feature prominently. Marshland salsify and bounding main-purslane leaves littered a fillet of hake, with a perfectly balanced sauce of cider, cockles and butter. Vegetables are used imaginatively: smoked Jerusalem artichoke was stir-fried with rainbow chard and served with spaghetti squash. We tin't comment on desserts: service was getting patchy equally the evening wore on, and our orders never arrived.

The Gladwins grew upward at Nutbourne Vineyards, and so the perfectly skillful Nutbourne wines are well-represented. Nosotros watched the staff decant the 'Shed white' from argent vacuum packs into rustic wine bottles for serving at the table, with one person holding the pack and the other 'milking' information technology. The effect was fittingly like being in the urban version of a moo-cow shed.
