Now, throughout October you’ll be able to get a regular fix as he launches his pop-up-for-now, hopefully-permanent-later, Milieu. He’ll be serving up “small plates of drinking food” at The North Star on Leytonstone’s Browning Road, another regular hang that we quite simply love.
Popping down the other night to get a taster of what’s going to be on the menu, we were taken on something of a culinary world tour.
We tucked into Malaysian prawn fritters, sous vide onglet with homemade kimchi, chicken wings with a spicy mayo, chargrilled cauliflower in fish sauce, pork belly with spring onions…oh and poutine, a Canadian dish of chips of cheese curd in gravy, basically the best take on a student staple like, ever. In fact, just what you need to accompany a pint or a glass, or three, of red.
LOCAL ADVERTISING
There’ll be six or seven dishes on the menu, with at least one veggie and one fish dish on offer, and the menu will change weekly. Snacky dishes will cost around £3 and the bulk of the main dishes will be around the £6-£8 mark.
And pizza lovers, don’t fear: the wood-fired stuff is still on the menu and totally orderable.
