There’s a new Israeli in town.
We’re a little late to Strut & Cluck, which opened in June. But London’s newest Israeli-inspired restaurant has been getting such ravesthat we wanted to give it a shout-out.
Chef Amir Chen’s turkey-centric menu includes harissa-coated wings, halloumi salad, meat-free koftas and “pita balagan” — an anything-goes, daily-changing concoction. There’s even a baked haroset and almond cake for dessert.

This week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
