    I literally just came back from Fallow 3 hours ago.
    Found these guys on RUclips and been hooked on the channel.
    Said to the wife, WE HAVE TO GO HERE.
    Did not disappoint.
    Corn ribs are like crack.
    Mussels with Bacon Butter, unreal.
    Carrot salad, trust me. Is a must.
    Monkfish tikka massala, farkin hell.
    Absolute 10/10

    So looks like the Fallow Heddon St. Restaurant is already ‘permanently closed’. Please keep your St. James’s location of Fallow open until at least the end of June - because I’m planning a trip to London then, and *really* want to try a British Sunday roast meal, and want to have yours (after I saw that ‘Inside Food’ YT channel, an American + a British guy try out different London restaurants for Sunday roast dinners!).❤ Of course I hope it stays profitable and in business for YEARS to come - I’m just being selfish about the June date!👍

    Hmmmmm. Yes Haymarket is not Soho but its not far at all from Soho, people can still easily get there in a tube stop from the top London night life spots. People like to go to Soho because because they can go to a bar before, or the theatre after, and it has a vibe. Canary Wharf (worked there for 3 years) is devoid of life in the evenings and on the weekend, despite what that estate sales agent will tell you. Its far out out enough that people have to go out of there way only to go to your restaurant and cant combine it with other London nightlife things, like they would in Soho.

    Cool!! Please vlog as much as you can about building, designs, issues, wins, and mistakes. The journey, the ups and downs, is what makes things like this very fun to watch. If everything is always perfect, that it feels put on. I think it can also help to get people emotionally invested in the success of the new place as well, people watch the stress from this episode all the way to opening night. But if not, I'll be here for the content you already put out, as it fun watching talented people to the thing they're great at doing. God Bless!

    Canary Wharf definitely an odd one for an independent fine dining restaurant, but as you said so is the heartland of grimey tourist London! Can see the appeal of having a huge space to work with compared to cramming into a small unit in a less risky location like West London or Islington.
    Good luck lads

    Fairly new to your channel, i´ve really enjoyed the POV videos. I watch them when i´m working on my computer. The sounds of the hustle and bussle of a busy kitchen is kinda soothing when i´m knee deep in crap at work clonking away infront of a computer all day long 😅
    If and when I get back to visiting the UK and London, I will for sure come dine at Fallow. It looks amazing!
    I wish u all the best in your new endevours. Allthough I can´t help but feel a little worried for you. Recession, a very robust vision for sure for your new restaurant, a new location that does not seem very tried and proved. But, I´m crossing my fingers and hope it´s everything and more that you wish for. 🍀

    • @allenwixted1992
      @allenwixted1992 Месяц назад +1

      I’d be curious (I know nothing about restaurants) whether footfall matters that much? With this kind of place I visited from Ireland after hearing about it on Instagram. I’d imagine word of mouth and who lives and works in the general area is much more important? As opposed to someone walking by and selecting it based on the menu outside for example.

    • @deadnicedave
      @deadnicedave Месяц назад +1

      @@allenwixted1992 Sorry, by footfall i mean St James has a lot more people visiting it for other reasons than say just going to Fallow, but Roe is one of only a few reasons you might want to visit that part of Canary Wharf, its a very quiet area at weekends and at times like Easter, Christmas and Bank holidays, roe might become a specific reason to visit the area, but even at that there is a lot less footfall. If i was in London for the day i may visit Fallow as it's location is perfect, not sure i would book Roe though, too much of a detour.
