Forget cheap substitutes; Charles Campion reveals where to get your teeth into a rare breed of pork, some genuine mutton and a delicious rack of lamb...

Butler's Wharf Chop House

Racine
229 Brompton Road, SW3
English chef, French restaurant, delightful attitude. This is one of the few places where you can sometimes get a genuine mutton chop - and it's very good indeed. £30pp ex-drinks. (020 7584 4477)

Real Greek Souvlaki
61-62 Long Acre, WC2
A link in the Real Greek chain. Expect good dips, great Greek wines, stellar souvlaki, and for chop lovers, there's a very delicious rack of lamb chops. £12pp ex-drinks. (020 7240 2292)
