“rhubarb” are delighted to announce that on 2nd August 2010, we will be officially opening Bond & Brook at the Fenwick store on Bond Street. As Fenwick are approaching completion of their ambitious three-year store expansion, beautification and redevelopment programme, we can safely say this is going to be a truly stunning in-store restaurant.
Bond & Brook is also the first joint project from conception to completion by “rhubarb” and A Private View – the partnership of Evening Standard restaurant critic Fay Maschler, and journalist and broadcaster Simon Davis.
Located on the second floor, overlooking Brook Street and sitting comfortably beside displays of high fashion, Bond & Brook will be an all-day restaurant open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, afternoon tea, cocktails and canapés, all in harmony with the store’s opening hours.
Menu highlights include sharing plates of summer vegetable frittata, brochette of mustard-and-honey quail, and tomato water jelly on goat’s cheese mousse. Or how about main courses of vitello tonnato, chicken à la king, the best-ever prawn pad Thai or steak-frites with Café de Paris butter? And to start your day of retail therapy - Bond & Brook Breakfast in a Skillet - a ladylike fry-up with a Virgin Mary shot. 
In addition, on the third floor of the store is another new “rhubarb” offering, the Affogato Bar, designed for that perfectly invigorating jolt of caffeine for weary shoppers! Look forward to the richest espressos tipped onto a scoop of vanilla ice cream, served with sugared doughnuts, pastizies and glazed almond twists.
We will bring you more news as we approach opening day, but in the meantime, contact “rhubarb” to find out more about Bond & Brook or Affogato on
