A Look Inside Electric Diner, Opening Next Week

By Michael Parker

Here's a look inside The Electric Diner, the American-style diner opening next week on Portobello Road. This collaboration with Chicago restaurateur and chef Brendan Sodikoff takes a cue from Chicago's popular Au Cheval diner and Doughnut Vault - Electric Donuts will take up the foyer of the original Electric Cinema, London's oldest. The latest part of the Soho House group of private members clubs with bars, hotels and cinemas, the newly formed Electric House comprises the diner and donut shop, two floors of space for working, eating or meeting, and the revamped cinema itself. But what's the food like, you cry? We'll find out on Monday (191 Portobello Rd., W11 2ED; 020 7908 9696).
