Pi Pizza arrives in London | QSRMedia UK
food menu
After three successful years in Winchester, Pi has brought a slice of pizza perfection to South West London with the new 85 cover restaurant on Battersea Rise, a stone’s throw away from Clapham Common.
Pi’s pizzas are available as standard size; with the option for half and half, or as a 20 inch base to share with two or three menu options.
Toppings include Hampshire pork sausage, sliced desiree potatoes, garlic, thyme, caper crumb and nocellara olives; wild boar salami, red chilli and piquillo peppers; Lebanese spiced ground lamb with Turkish yoghurt and fresh parsley; and Old Winchester cauliflower cheese, chorizo and spinach.
To complement the pizzas, Pi’s menu also features small plates and salads to start or enjoy on the side.
An open kitchen off the dining room allows guests a glimpse of Pi’s pizzaiolos at work and the woodfired pizza oven.
New Restaurant Review: Señor Ceviche | Londonist
food location drinks staff
In the week that plans have been announced for a second branch of Ceviche near Old Street, newcomer Pachamama is finding its feet in Marylebone, merging Peruvian influences with the best of British produce, and this one-time prolific pop-up is bedding into a permanent site in Soho’s Kingly Court.
Tucked away fairly out-of-sight on the court’s first-floor balcony, Señor Ceviche’s walls are plastered with neon-coloured Spanish-language signs, while Hispanic patterned tiles line a small bar area close to an open kitchen.
The house-special Señor Ceviche is a twist on a classic and features sea bream and cubed avocado served in tiger’s milk.
Tiger’s milk is the name given to the most common ceviche marinade: a mix of lime juice, chilli, garlic and coriander.
Señor Ceviche works on a small plates basis, meaning the dishes are all placed in the middle of the table to share and each diner given a side plate.
Restaurant Review: Tea Room, Soho | Londonist
food
Tea Room lands just the right side of the glowing gimmick, with its ersatz 1960s Hong Kong feel — a wardrobe-sized radio cabinet cooing out vintage cantonese pop here, a menu moonlighting as a newspaper there.
While the food's not on a par with the dai pai dong of Hong Kong, it is extremely good — the lacey dumplings providing a wonderful crispy/chewy texture, the pickled melon cutting through the pile of deep fried duck tongues, and the Cigarette & Palm cocktail playfully presented with a tin of candy smokes.
It's surely a good sign that, despite being stuffed, we can't help picking at the char siu pork until it's gone.
Hottest Openings This February

Vegans and veggies are rejoicing, and so should carnivores, the food should be exceptional.
The food marries vegan and veggie dining with haute cuisine and is inspired by Haworth’s own health problems as a sufferer of Lyme disease.
The disease made him entirely rethink his approach to food and as such the meals will be exceptionally high in nutritional value.
Welcome Pi Battersea! The new pizza restaurant that's just opened
But it turns out that one Winchester restaurant has taken the same approach, and while GCSE maths remained deeply dully, Pi Pizzeria made it work so well that it’s now coming to London!
Along with her team of Italian chefs, she intends to work the same magic on London, with Battersea Rise marking ground zero.
The pizza will include Pi’s artisan dough which has been perfected over time with the secret recipe involving a 72 hour fermentation process.
And it sounds like it’ll be the perfect base for their 20 inch pizzas topped with the likes of Hampshire pork sausage, sliced desiree potatoes, garlic, thyme, caper crumb and nocellara olives; wild boar salami, red chilli and piquillo peppers; Lebanese spiced ground lamb with Turkish yoghurt and fresh parsley and Old Winchester cauliflower cheese, chorizo and spinach.
We’re genuinely looking forward to this one arriving, it’s not just a taste of Winchester hitting South London, but a slice of Italy.
