Dominic Hamdy started out by whipping up the best scotch egg in town, from market stalls to a wholesale business with the likes of Selfridges and Wholefoods as clients. Scotchtails didn’t in fact continue to scale but instead morphed into something much broader. First a Nordic inspired coffee shop on the Strand which was sold ahead of launching the enormously successful Crispin in Spitalfields. Think small plates, seasonal produce and an epic wine list of low intervention and natural wines. Many a chef collaboration helped cement its popularity and a further three restaurants have followed; Bar Crispin in Soho, Bistro Freddie in Shoreditch and Crispin at Studio Voltaire in Clapham. It's almost impossible to get a table currently. The fashion crowd are big fans as is just about everybody else!
