A new chef has taken charge of the kitchen at the Prince Arthur in Hackney, one of east London’s dearest pubs. Now in situ is Will Samuel, who’s serving a menu of venison croquettes with pickled walnut, smoked eel gildas, and hogget belly with salsa verde and anchovy puffs. Perfect drinking snacks, by the sound of it, while larger plates such as John Dory with sauce Veronique and guinea fowl with calvados sound promising.
