About Trivet
Trivet operates on an inversion most tasting-menu rooms never attempt: the cellar comes first. Isa Bal's wine list — deep on grower Champagne, Jura, and oxidative styles most London lists won't touch — sets the register, and Jonny Lake builds dishes to meet it, pulling technique from a stagiaire's-eye view of French classicism, Nordic preservation, and Southeast Asian acid work. The result reads as global on paper and precise in the mouth: a dish might carry miso, brown butter, and vin jaune in the same six bites without any single element shouting. Service is unhurried and genuinely conversant on the pairings, which matters here more than at almost any other two-star room in the city.

How far in advance should I book Trivet?
Weekend tables typically need three to four weeks' notice, though weekday lunch sittings sometimes open up with under a week's lead time. Book directly through the restaurant for the most accurate real-time availability.
Is the wine pairing worth adding to the tasting menu at Trivet?
Given that the cellar — curated by co-owner Isa Bal — is arguably the restaurant's defining feature, skipping the pairing means missing the point of the room. Most regulars treat it as non-optional.
