Carters of Moseley

Don’t be fooled by the Acieed-inspired smiley face branding tins of Exmoor caviar, potato smilies and limited-edition bucket hat. Brummie (the nickname for Birmingham) chef, unreformed raver and Slow Food champion Brad Carter takes his calling seriously, sourcing from an urban allotment, making cheese and charcuterie in house and swapping foreign ingredients out for native ones on his clever and creative tasting menus. Since when was suburban Birmingham so cool? Carter’s lockdown project One Star Döner Bar has taken up permanent residence in Kings Heath.
