Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner Dishoom is a fun and exciting all-day restaurant with many perks. And for the discerning ale drinker, Dishoom have their own India Pale Ale which has been specially crafted by Hackney’s Beavertown Brewery. A potion of gin, rose and cardamom laced with fresh mint and petals it’s definitely one for the ladies. The Permit Rooms hosts a selections of wonderful libations, we particularly liked Edwina’s Affair served in a steel cup. Now pair the sharing plates with a cocktail or two and you have yourself a party. The Gunpowder Potatoes, Skate Cheeks Koliwada and their sweet and crunchy calamari were delicate and vibrant with a definite a hint of Bombay. Moist, light and creamy it came an admirable second to the marinated lamb. Now for the street food bit – inventive, wholesome and tasty I couldn’t quite get enough of their chicken thigh pieces marinated with Philadelphia, yoghurt and cheddar cheese for 24 hours prior to cooking. Paul’s Cathedral (yes really), they have, yet again, created an imaginative and desirable space. Designed by Russell Sage Studio, the designers behind Zetter Town House, The Hospital Club and St. The restaurant is spacious, and the Bombay/Deco interiors are cleverly placed throughout a deliberately unfinished backdrop.Īntiquities, textured glass, and a dominant marble bar all make up the speak-easy charm of Dishoom. Yea I hear the food is good but it’s the Art Deco styling that captures my oh-so-fickle mind. All of my favourite things, so for at least the first twenty minutes I buzzed around with joy admiring the lighting, the family photographs, array of oyster lamps and furniture. The interior and exteriors of Dishoom are exciting, inviting, romantic and eclectic. Mirror that in Shoreditch and you’re on to a winner. Their Covent Garden restaurant has for a few years now been a bit of a place-to-go for Indian cuisine. And before too long, the Café began to feel as if it had always been there wedged comfortably into Boundary Street, accumulating its own East London layers.Joining Boundary Street with faded elegance and street food inspired cuisine, the eagerly anticipated arrival of East London’s latest eatery – Dishoom – has a great reputation preceding it. It was never happier than when it was being true to itself and serving its guests – sharing its love for Bombay, serving its food, telling its stories. Throughout, the Café smiled inwardly to itself. Meanwhile, dinner and drinks on a Friday or Saturday night would see the place at its liveliest, buzzing with Londoners coming to a good old knees-up hosted by the eccentric old Café. Afternoon chai would provide a calm refuge from the East London street. Lunch with colleagues on a Wednesday, busy and brisk, waiters bustling on to the verandah with trays of abundant food. The bar, which served the most delicious and sincere old cocktails – Flips, Gimlets, Juleps and Sours, felt even a bit pre-‘47.īrunch on Sunday would be deliciously lazy, laced warmly with the aroma of the bakery. The endless cups of chai, the best thing to revive energy levels on a wilted Tuesday afternoon. The warm baked biscuits and Keema puffs, just like those still being served at Sassannian Café in Bombay. The Lamb Raan which had been cooked overnight and seemed completely at home in a burger. The food which came quickly out of the open kitchen. And most of all the Café loved serving food and drink with so much enthusiasm.
