What's the draw
Chef John Christie has an inventive and sensitive way with seasonal British ingredients at the Town Hall hotel's second restaurant.
What to drink
Head to the hotel's Peg + Patriot bar for a pre- or post-prandial cocktail or a local beer (in a can, obviously, this being East London).
What to eat
Our squirrel terrine (yep, you heard us) was delicately spiced and subtle in flavour, while a fillet of red deer – served with slivers of maple-smoked pear and gem lettuce – was so tender you could cut it with a sideways glance.
