Jamon Jamon Belsize

It’s so nice you say it twice! The Spanish word for all things ‘ham’, Jamon Jamon pays tribute to the traditions surrounding this humble meat. One thing this eatery is not short of is passion!

Occupying an idyllic spot in one of Belsize’s prettiest buildings, Jamon is cool as a cucumber with a glossy, whitewashed interior, a forest’s worth of luscious greens and a summery glass roof that lets in every last ray of light. And let’s not forget their fashionable patio; it's the best spot to watch quaint Belsize go about its business.

How fitting, then, that the menu serves up an irresistible taste of the summery Med. Specialising in tapas and joyful Spanish eats, feel free to decorate the table with all kinds of colourful sharing plates. From the meatalicious beef and pork meatballs, smoky chorizo and Pollo chicken, there’s plenty to go around! And for seafood fanatics? Well, with a grand total of five paellas to choose from, Jamon has got you well and truly covered.

Balance your table with some vegetarian nibbles too. You’ll find squidgy grilled aubergines in a creamy bechamel and tomato sauce, fried goats cheese with homemade crisps and a mini mountain of patatas bravas awaiting your verdict. And seeing as you’re in the sharing mood, how about a pitcher of Sangria? We already know the answer…
