Top pop-up chef to open first perm restaurant in London this autumn

Pop-up chef extraordinaire Leandro Carreira is to open his first bricks and mortar site in the Snowsfields Yard development in London Bridge.

Carreira will launch his new restaurant, Londrino, in the autumn, bringing the flavours, traditions and ingredients from his native Portugal. The menu will evolve every week and will reflect the many influences of his culinary experiences.

For the new venture, Carreira is teaming up with hotelier Peng Loh, and Cameron Dewar, who worked with the chef at both Viajante and Climpson’s Arch, as Manager-sommelier.

Carreira trained at World’s 50 Best restaurant, Mugaritz in Spain, before heading over to London where he was head chef at Nuno Mendes’ Viajante, before moving on to Lyle’s and Koya.
