Smoking Lobster Group has joined forces with Foresters Hall, the celebrated boutique hotel in Cowes, to open The Brasserie, by Smoking Lobster in the Hotel.
The announcement was made today by sibling partners Giancarlo Giancovich and Cinzia Reckitt on behalf of Smoking Lobster Group, and husband-and-wife duo Sara Curran and Peter Sussman on behalf of Foresters Hall.
In 2017 chef/owner Giancarlo (“GC”) Giancovich opened the Smoking Lobster Ventnor Beach.
It quickly became popular with tourists and locals alike boasting panoramic views of one of the island's best beaches and delicious dishes celebrating the best island produce available, re-imagined through a pan-Asian lens.
In 2020 GC enlisted the help of his sister and sake specialist Cinz.
Having spent 15 years immersed in the London food scene, Cinz returned to the island to begin working alongside GC.
Together they launched Drunken Lobster - an Izakaya style bar-centric offering - with fine wines, sake and cocktails taking centre stage alongside a concise Japanese bar menu.
Together with a team that includes many family members and close friends, Smoking Lobster Group then launched Smoking Lobster Cowes in July 2021.
Cinz said:
“It’s been a great journey so far, going in an additional direction by introducing a brasserie menu at Foresters Hall that is distinct from the Asian menus at our current locations is a very exciting opportunity for our Group.
“Foresters Hall couldn’t be a more beautiful venue, so we are delighted that Sara and Peter want to launch a new restaurant with us.”
The Brasserie menu will emphasise Mediterranean influences and seasonal product, with a focus on locally sourced seafood and freshly made pasta.
The Brasserie by Smoking Lobster will open at Foresters Hall on Friday April 7.
Lunch and Dinner will be served in the restaurant as well as in the bar and on the terrace to both hotel residents and non-residents.
