Heading the kitchen will be Somaia Hammad, a Turin-born chef who took to cooking after travelling through Puglia with her nonna. Hammad’s menu will champion classic Italian dishes, including the likes of Livornese-style red mullet, bistecca alla Fiorentina, stuffed mussels and a range of pizzas. The aim, Nair says, is comforting, family-fed cooking. Nipotina will open from breakfast, and is intended to be an informal spot by day, priced accordingly (at least in Mayfair terms), smartening up as the evening arrives.
