The Mayor of Elmbridge, Cllr Mike Bennison and Dominic Raab MP were both present at the official opening of Henry’s Kitchen, Bridge Road the only independent eco-friendly and sustainable restaurant in Elmbridge, on 15th May 2014 at 6pm.
Named after Henry VIII, the all day restaurant serves traditional British dishes as well as European cuisine.
Owner Reza Amini says: “It’s important that everyone does what they can to save the planet, so I wanted to create a sustainable restaurant. This means that not only will we use local ingredients, but we will include many sustainable features such as using rainwater to flush the lavatories.”
The restaurant’s interior walls are made from reclaimed timber from Farnham, Surrey; the menus are printed on recycled paper; wines will come from Surrey vineyards and all light fittings will be energy-saving LEDs.
“Our fish will come from sustainable fisheries in Britain certified by the Marine Stewardship Council,” adds Reza Amini.
Henry’s Kitchen is supporting local charity Princess Alice Hospice by donating 50p from a starter and 50p from a main course to the charity. The two courses are wild mushroom and goats cheese tart for the starter and for the main course, baked cod served with sweet potatoes and anchovies fry up and sauté spinach.
Reza Amini says “I recognise the important work the Hospice does in the local community and would like to support them in this way.”
The restaurant has joined the Sustainable Restaurant Association (SRA) and once open, will apply for accreditation. The SRA will rate the restaurant across 14 key areas of sustainability.
Henry’s kitchen is located at the river end of Bridge Road within sight of the Palace.
They are open seven days a week for breakfast lunch and dinner, serving local and seasonal food.
