The first permanent restaurant from the popular street food vendor, specialising in South African bunny chow - a hollowed out loaf filled with curry.
The original menu at Bunnychow includes 4 main feisty, flavoursome ‘bunnys’ (freshly baked buns, hollowed out, crammed with delicious hot fillings and topped with a bread ‘lid’) and 4 fresh juice cocktails. For the Summer, a delicious new range of "naked bunny boxes" have been introduced, perfect for those looking for something lighter, as well as seasonal sides and additional Breakfast & desserts options.

No bunnies are harmed in the making of this popular South African street food
London's Bunnychow started out as a street food stall, and now it has a permanent restaurant in Soho. It's a speedy eating sort of place, where you build your own bunny by choosing filling, bread and topping.
The veggie option has roasted aubergine, butternut squash and quinoa, with heaps of garlic and chilli to make it fiery. Soft pulled pork has been marinated with coriander, sage and pomegranate molasses, topped with a crunchy fennel slaw salad and dolloped into a green tea matcha loaf. The bread could do with being a bit softer in both cases, but the flavours are good.
Side dishes include very tender, slow cooked pork ribs in a sweet and tangy sauce of paprika, mango chutney and Dijon. Chicken wings are another spicy dish, coated in plenty of pimento, chilli paste, and sticky molasses.
Dessert is the bunny chocolate pot, a rich chocolate pudding with crushed nuts, scooped into a brioche. The venue is licenced so there's a choice of beers and cocktails, with a focus on herby, citrusy flavours.
