Rhubarb Hospitality Collection refurbishes Fenchurch Restaurant with new counter dining
Rhubarb Hospitality Collection (RHC), the premium hospitality group specialising in luxury event catering, destination restaurants and hospitality management, has refurbished its Fenchurch Restaurant, located on the 37th floor of the Sky Garden building.
Interiors have been reimagined to reflect Head Chef Kerth Gumb’s Caribbean roots and playful approach to fine dining. Alongside vibrant tropical-themed accents, pops of colour and botanical lighting, counter dining and a lounge area have been introduced to offer a more casual dining experience.
The inaugural counter menu, designed for sharing, includes a variety of ‘pick & mix’ small plates such as cured jerk salmon ceviche, fried plantain, whisky BBQ wings and chilli fries served with Scotch bonnet mayo. Larger sharing options come from the grill with choices of baby chicken, spiced lamb fillet and aged sirloin, alongside seafood options like sea bream, tiger prawns and glazed black cod.
The refurbishment also marks the arrival of Kerth’s spring tasting menu, inspired by the flavours of his childhood home, the Caribbean island of Anguilla. The nine course menu features dishes of torched jerk salmon with spring onions and yuzu ponzu sauce; seabass with salt fish, smoked oyster, and Scotch bonnet emulsion; and Kerth's signature pre-dessert of soursop lolly with rum and lime gummy bear.
PB Jacobse, CEO, Rhubarb Hospitality Collection says:
“It’s been a year since we successfully partnered with Kerth and the refurbishment has been informed by his Caribbean roots, ebullient character and informal approach to fine dining. RHC is committed to innovation and the introduction of an accessible counter dining gives our guests more choices.”
Kerth Gumbs Head Chef at Fenchurch Restaurant comments:
“It’s so exciting to see my vision for the restaurant come to life with the support of RHC. We now have a versatile space – diners can pop in for a single dish or a cocktail and a bar snack as well as the fine dining tasting experience. I am committed to evolving the menus further with a spotlight on Caribbean flavours – watch this space for more exciting things to come.
