Macellaio RC Clerkenwell

9 Best Sustainable Meat Restaurants in London | Nose-to-Tail Butchers | Eater London

"Macellaio RC now operates five restaurants across London, with one in Milan. Championing Italian Fassona beef and Sicilian tuna, the restaurant on the bustle of Exmouth Market is fronted by a butcher’s shop where the Piedmontese beef is prepared. Bred in the Italian alps, Fassona beef is remarkably tender, due to the hypertrophic muscle growth unique to the cows thanks to a quirk of genetics. Dry-aged on-site for between five and seven weeks, the beef is showcased either raw in a tartares or carpaccios; or with steaks such as the Fiorentina — cut to size in the dining room, generously seasoned and grilled." - Jonathan Hatchman
