Tackling Food Waste with Alternative Cuts
Rump Steak intends to serve less common cuts of meat that are not typically featured in high-end dining establishments.

Objections and Conditions
The application faced an objection from a property developer, Railway Mews Limited, who are constructing six townhouses nearby. Their legal counsel expressed concerns regarding potential noise and the impact on the residential character of the area, particularly in relation to outdoor seating and customer dispersal. As reported by MyLondon, the applicant's legal counsel, Mr Jack Spiegler, assured a Kensington and Chelsea Licensing Sub-Committee that the operators possess extensive experience and would uphold high standards of service and management.
An agreement was reached whereby the outdoor seating area would not be used for dining. Instead, customers seeking al fresco options would be seated on the restaurant's forecourt. The sub-committee is expected to issue a written decision within five working days of the hearing.
