Calum Franklin's Pie Room to launch at Holborn Dining Room
It is due to open this October.
The Pie Room at Holborn Dining Room is spearheaded by executive head chef Calum Franklin.
The Pie Room will offer a selection of sweet and savoury pies, either to be enjoyed individually (prices from £5.50) or with others (£30 to serve 4-6 people). Seasonal pies can be ordered from The Pie Room.
Customers will be able to watch the restaurant’s chefs at work, including Chef Franklin, as they craft offerings such as pork pies, beef wellingtons, pate en croutes and pithiviers by hand every day.
Calum Franklin said, “I am obsessive about pastry, and seeing The Pie Room finally come to fruition is so exciting for me and the team. People may not realise the details and techniques that go into making our pies, and at The Pie Room guests will be able to see every step first hand. For me, I find it so rewarding sneaking a peak at the delight on diners faces when a pie arrives at their table. With the new Pie Room, we’ll be able to produce hundreds of pies a day, so we will be able to see those happy faces all day long!”
The Pie Room will sell fresh pies, from Monday to Friday, between 11am and 4pm.
