01 — The FireNo gas. No switch.

We cook on what the fire gives us.

There is no dial at Ember & Ash. Every plate is cooked over binchotan and local fruitwood, lit at four in the afternoon and fed by hand until the last seat leaves. The kitchen reads heat the old way — by the colour of the coal and the sound of the fat.
