Al Farid

Journal

Welcome to the Al Farid journal

A new home for our news, seasonal menus and the stories behind the dishes we cook on Holywell Hill.

This is the start of the Al Farid journal, a place to share what’s happening in and around the restaurant, from new dishes and seasonal menus to the evenings and celebrations we host upstairs in The Pomegranate Garden.

Some of the things you’ll find here

We’ll use this space for the things that don’t fit neatly anywhere else:

  • Seasonal menus: when the kitchen brings something new to the table.
  • Events: clubs, tastings and the occasional live night.
  • Behind the dishes: the spices, the suppliers and the stories that make Moroccan and Persian cooking what it is.

Part of what makes good food great is the story that is meant to be shared, around a full table. That’s the spirit we want these pages to carry.

If you’d like to be part of it, book a table or come and say hello. There’s always a pot of mint tea on.
