From Chelsea to Pimlico

Saturday, March 28th , 2026

Corenucopia is the casual sister of Core, and serves appealing dishes that are put together with skill. The Dover sole with lobster mousse, billed as “fish and chips”, was very good, and the service was charming. The expensive wine list is the main caveat, but the place is packed out, so the residents of Chelsea clearly are not fussed about that.

Cornus delivered another lovely meal this week, with a red mullet dish a particular highlight. The ingredient quality and technical skill here is high, and the room is attractive. The location, tucked away in Pimlico, means that it gets less attention than it deserves, but this is a top-class restaurant.
