Before you choose a spot
The grill needs flat ground outdoors and cover overhead. Here’s what we look for:
- A thought for the wind direction, so smoke drifts away from guests
- Somewhere dry for guests to eat if it rains
- Enough room for the grill, the serving table and a queue
St George in the East is in London, within the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and access can be tight: let us know how we reach the cooking spot and where we can park.
