Clapham’s Pepper Tree acquired by Wasif – expansion possible

By James Russell: Clapham’s Pepper Tree acquired by Wasif – expansion possible

September 24, 2012

Sami Wasif, co-founder of Michelin-starred Hakkasan, Franco Manca, and creator of Eco Restaurants, has acquired shares in the renowned local Thai restaurant, Pepper Tree, in Clapham in a deal brokered by Davis Coffer Lyons.

The Pepper Tree, which is famously Rick Stein’s favourite spot for Pad Thai, was sold after the founder Martin Burrell decided to retire after running the restaurant for 15 years. The restaurant is located on Clapham Common Southside, close to Clapham Common tube.

Restaurateur and investor Sami Wasif is also considering rolling out the Pepper Tree brand – we await his plans with interest.
