The Boxing Hare

Antony Griffith Harris is a seasoned London restaurateur with an illustrious three-decade career.

Fast forward to 2017, Antony and former Canal Brasserie Head Chef, Nicholas Anderson, reunited. This charmingly full-circle moment marked several decades since the duo first collaborated in the early stages of their respective careers back in the early 1990s. Nick Anderson began his career as a rising star in the culinary world. Over the years, his success led him to establish his own restaurant, earning impressive culinary distinctions such as 3 AA Rosettes, a 6/10 Good Food Guide rating, and notably, two Michelin Stars. Together, Antony and Nick have nurtured one of the Cotswolds' most favoured dining spots, uniting food enthusiasts from near and far.
