Ross Shonhan, the former head chef of Zuma who has established Soho’s Bone Daddies and Flesh & Buns, is understood to have taken a site in Soho for a new restaurant concept.
Cedar Dean Gilmarc (CDG) handled the deal for the former Made in Italy site on Old Compton Street.
It is not clear whether the site will be a Bone Daddies, the informal Japanese restaurant established by Shonhan in Soho or Flesh & Buns the Japanese restaurant and bar playing rock and roll music, or a new concept.
The exiting tenant Made in Italy has a further seven restaurants across London.
Shonhan is to open a second site under its eponymous concept within the Whole Foods Market in London’s Kensington High Street. The food offer will combine items from the first Bone Daddies in Soho and also from the group’s second site, Flesh & Buns in Covent Garden.
