Denton’s, a new restaurant celebrating the best of contemporary British food, is set to open in the heart of Parson’s Green later this month. Owner John Deen and Head Chef Ed Smith have created a menu where seasonal ingredients are the stars, and weekly specials will showcase what’s available at market. The restaurant has a relaxed brasserie feel with elegant bar seating, cosy booths and a pretty, canopied garden terrace outside.
This spring you can expect creamy Jersey Royal potatoes, tender lamb and crisp and salty samphire. Later in the year, the menu will feature warming goose, grouse and venison dishes. The cheese board includes Sussex goat’s cheese, Hampshire mozzarella and even a cheese from Tottenham. Puddings are favourites-with-a-twist like rhubarb crumble and Kentish apple tarts. The wine list contains award-winners from across southern England, along with a large international selection.
Chef Ed Smith says: “Fulham has two wonderful and hugely popular farmers’ markets and I’m incredibly excited at the chance to serve food with that same super-fresh and local spirit to our diners.”
