What to do in Chelsea
Ahead of START – the cutting-edge contemporary London art fair housed in the Saatchi Gallery – we round up the best restaurants, theatre and shopping in the area. Here's what to do in Chelsea this autumn
Given that Elystan Street's charm offensive has made it the talk of the town, it's surprising that the design work by Clare Nelson Design feels distinctly unlike a restaurant.
It is unusual, but likeable and breezy with Nordic minimalism at every turn, from its swept-back chairs to the floors, flanked in light wood.
The menu changes almost daily, and little alterations reflect the seasons, but we would recommend the plume and cheek of pata negra pork with caramelised endive and sweet and sour grapefruit if it's on offer.
Although prices are alarmingly high, this is a celebration spot to savour. A glitzy dinner following a glitzy day at START could be just the ticket.
