A Spanish restaurant in Richmond town centre is looking forward to a fruitful and festive December after unveiling two mouth-watering new menus to customers.

November has been a difficult month for hospitality industry businesses, with restaurants only allowed to serve via takeaway or delivery.

Aiming to put it in the past, RincoÌn in Paradise Road has created two tapas tasting menus which will be offered throughout December. Gift vouchers are also available.

RincoÌn manager Felipe Jose Izquierdo told Richmond Nub News that his restaurant usually closes between December 24-27, "but we're waiting for the government to confirm what restrictions we'll be under before making the decision on this year".

It is expected that Richmond and wider London will be placed back under Tier 2 restrictions when the current lockdown ends on December 2. We will know for sure this Thursday. Pubs and restaurants will be able to stay open until 11pm under the tweaked Tier 2 rules, but people will only be able to dine with those in their household or support bubble.

The restaurant said: "Christmas is a little different this year, so we've designed a selection of tapas tasting menus for a festive meal to remember. With tables for 2-6 available, RincoÌn is the perfect place to celebrate.

"Enjoy an assortment of delicious tapas, served over three courses, Spanish-style in the centre of the table.

"All menus include a complementary glass of Cava or Fino Sherry on arrival, with prices starting at just £26.50pp. Add a wine pairing and you'll be served a glass of specially selected vino with each course for just £20pp.

"Contact Felipe for more details and to book your space today! Email [email protected] or call 020 8940 2601."
