The big new arrival in Belsize is set to be Melange, which launches next week.

In Steele’s Village – ie the self-styled bit nearest Camden – while the Legal Cafe remains shut, the Load of Hay (formerly The Hill) is due to reopen after being closed all summer, with an as-yet-unidentified new look.

Meanwhile new arrival next door Lisa Hauck has just moved her holistic hair and beauty salon from Primrose Hill to larger premises at no. 90 (she’s well-connected too, roping in telly’s Jonathan Ross to cut the ribbon recently).

Lisa Hauck has moved from Primrose Hill.

Review: Melange, Belsize Park – Kentishtowner

Photo: PR Assuming it will be dead on a chilly Wednesday night, first we sink a beer at the reinvented Wine Rack bar down the hill ( not as cheap as it once was, alas, but draft Beavertown’s a not-bad £4 a pint).

Chicken leg slow-cooked in red wine with autumnal chestnut mushrooms.

Photo:PR Mains, served on earthenware plates, are very edible too: an acceptable £2 surplus bags us a 7oz sirloin, served exactly blood-red, its exterior charred.

And yet the (no-surplus) poulet au vin is the winner, its robust chicken leg slow-cooked in red wine with autumnal chestnut mushrooms, baby onions, lardons and herbs.

A note of caution: despite (or perhaps because) our choice of no-frills set menu plus cheapo house wine, a fairly persistent attempt is made throughout to sell us extras – sides, dessert, olives – by the friendly waitress.

Whether you’re in for a contemporary take on rustic French and Italian fare, or after one of Melange’s specialty prosecco cocktails, it’s safe to say you’ll be in for one of the best dining experiences in London.

If a tipple is what you’re after, what’s better than sipping on a refreshing raspberry bellini made with lime juice, raspberries and prosecco, or an Italian Waiter made with limoncello, fresh basil and topped with prosecco?

Or, if you’re a spice lover, Melange in Belsize Park also creates a particularly enticing if you dare cocktail with chilli, apple juice, vodka, lime and, of course, prosecco.

Well, as we said, this Belsize Park restaurant specialises in French and Italian rustic-style dishes.

So for all this and so much more, pay Melange in Belsize Park a visit.
