FOOD & DRINK
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
The Groundnut | St John’s Hall, London Bridge | Until Sat 12 Dec | 7.30pm | £30
The Groundnut returns for another residency at St John’s Hall, promising a mouth-watering menu inspired by African heritage of founders Folayemi Brown, Duval Timothy & Jacob Fodio.
They Say: The menu is always evolving, so if you come to The Groundnut dinners you’ll never eat the same thing twice (you can get a taste for what we serve here) but I guess something else that sets us apart is how much we invest in the other aspects of dinner, away from the food. Check out our interview with The Groundnut team & enter our competition to win a copy of The Groundnut cookbook!
