After the success of their shipping container pop-up at Pop Brixton, Remi Williams and Aaron Webster have moved on to this Tooting site (formerly an outpost of Dip & Flip). The cuisine will continue to celebrate "the ancient techniques of smoking, curing and preserving, combined with bold, global flavours and modern influences".
