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.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and the protests on college campuses.
