The Shish concept originated with our founder's continual disappointment with the manner in which this food was served here in the UK. We could find nowhere to meet our expectations for quality of ingredients, service and hygiene standards. So we did it ourselves.

All of the chicken and lamb we procure is certified halal. Our raw meat is delivered via London butchers with BRC accreditation, the highest level of food safety practices. We are not however a halal restaurant as our cuisine
reflects the 2,000 mile long Silk Road that is imbued with a variety of different cultures.

We have re-invented this delicious food within a warm and modern restaurant, whose central concern is providing the highest quality food at a value for money price.

Shish is a modern interpretation of this style of food and method of cooking, drawing on influences from the Silk Road and beyond. Eating at Shish is a relaxed and informal affair, based on eastern cultures, where food brings people together. Mix and match from small dishes of mezze, skewers of lightly marinated meats, fish, chicken and vegetables, steamed rice, couscous and breads. All our food is freshly made daily, from only the highest quality ingredients.

We care passionately about the provenance of all of our produce for example our lamb is from Suffolk breed from Cropfield Farm, our chicken from Ross/Cobb grade A breed from Kenninghall Farm & Mill in Suffolk and our beef from Charrolais & Limousin breeds comes from Wardes Farm in Aberdeen.

Chefs all along the Silk Road buy local fresh produce and cook to order – so do we. That's how it should be….
