Chophouses

Chop, chop! Your favourite food history/food studies podcast is back! In this special episode featuring the legendary Simpson’s chop house of London, we explore the history of the chophouse: an English culinary institution. Hear all about an 18th-century dining phenomenon that may be making a quiet comeback and talk to some of the staff of Simpson’s, the City of London’s most historic and famous chophouse, a place steeped in history and beloved of city traders to this day.

Apologies for the sound quality on this one - I have been suitably flogged.
