Marben.
Simon Benstead's Marben is a farmhouse restaurant headed by head butcher Ryan Donovan as well as head chef Carl Heinrich. Buying whole cows, they use 99% of the animal, embracing responsible and ethical means of food preparation. The result is delectable comfort classics, like John's Burger, stuffed with braised ribs, topped with local cheddar and decorated with Branston pickles and Denise's Pork Belly - served atop delicate cucumber salad and scallions. All meat is butchered in house and can be cut to order. For the hardcore carnivores out there, Marben allows customers to buy whole animals and have them stored and cured in one of their farms (you can also take your meat home).
