Why We Are Risking Everything On A New Restaurant | How To Open A Restaurant: Episode 1

I literally just came back from Fallow 3 hours ago. Found these guys on YouTube and been hooked on the channel. Said to the wife, WE HAVE TO GO HERE. Did not disappoint. Corn ribs are like crack. Mussels with Bacon Butter, unreal. Carrot salad, trust me. Is a must. Monkfish tikka massala, farkin hell. Absolute 10/10

Good luck lads quality will win.

This is documentary-quality editing and storytelling. I love this and I cannot wait to get to the UK one day so I can eat there!

So looks like the Fallow Heddon St. Restaurant is already ‘permanently closed’. Please keep your St. James’s location of Fallow open until at least the end of June — because I’m planning a trip to London then, and really want to try a British Sunday roast meal, and want to have yours (after I saw that ‘Inside Food’ YT channel, an American + a British guy try out different London restaurants for Sunday roast dinners!).❤ Of course I hope it stays profitable and in business for YEARS to come — I’m just being selfish about the June date!👍

You've got this boys! Give it your best shot and it will work, I have no doubt.

I’m from the US and went to London for the first time in 2022, but found Fallow’s YouTube page a couple weeks after I left. Since then, I’ve been waiting to go back to London to go to Fallow! Can’t wait to see the new restaurant. Best of luck you guys!

We need a chef's table on Netflix for these.

I hope that you're making a series documenting the restaurant opening

I had dinner at Fallow this past Sunday, April 7th. Everything was excellent. Had the mushroom parfait, curry wurst, cods head, mussels. Thanks for an excellent evening out.

That haymarket rent must be astronomical

Cool!! Please vlog as much as you can about building, designs, issues, wins, and mistakes. The journey, the ups and downs, is what makes things like this very fun to watch. If everything is always perfect, that it feels put on. I think it can also help to get people emotionally invested in the success of the new place as well, people watch the stress from this episode all the way to opening night. But if not, I'll be here for the content you already put out, as it fun watching talented people to the thing they're great at doing. God Bless!

Following this channel for quite a while now. Being from California, I would travel to London simply just to visit Fallow. These guys are absolutely phenomenal and deserve an immense amount of success in the future. Well done fellas.

Canary Wharf definitely an odd one for an independent fine dining restaurant, but as you said so is the heartland of grimey tourist London! Can see the appeal of having a huge space to work with compared to cramming into a small unit in a less risky location like West London or Islington. Good luck lads

Hmmmmm. Yes Haymarket is not Soho but its not far at all from Soho, people can still easily get there in a tube stop from the top London night life spots. People like to go to Soho because because they can go to a bar before, or the theatre after, and it has a vibe. Canary Wharf (worked there for 3 years) is devoid of life in the evenings and on the weekend, despite what that estate sales agent will tell you. Its far out out enough that people have to go out of there way only to go to your restaurant and cant combine it with other London nightlife things, like they would in Soho.

Truly so happy for you guys! The Follow team as a whole, kitchen, BoH, FoH and bar! You have all worked so hard together over the past three years, like a well oiled service machine! I can not wait to dine again with you in Canary Wharf! And hopefully see you all at the opening night.

Good luck with the new project 👍

Went tonight. The food and service was incredible, 10/10, congratulations!

You guys deserve it all, work ethic is unreal and your care and love towards food and the industry is second to none. Hope the new place thrives

I tried Roe the other day for their soft launch and it was amazing! Gorgeous space, good prices, good cocktails and of course, very good food. Would highly recommend.

By far one of the best and most interesting cooking channels on YouTube. Hope to visit soon. Good luck!
