cott Hallsworth is set for a very busy few months with Kurobuta Chelsea moving location to a new spacious home on King's Road and in its place a new venture in the form of Joe's Oriental Diner; a restaurant that will replicate the dive bar subculture of the Orient.
Kurobuta in its new location will seat up to 90 and will include a casual lounge, bar, private dining and an events area. The menu will still house the firm favourites from Junk Food Japan's Sashimi Pizza and Robata BBQ dishes.
The new location will also have new drinks with the introduction of slushy cocktails, Japanese whiskies, barrel-aged cocktails, frosted tankard beers, growlers and sparkling sake.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.
The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.
We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.
A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
