Urban Junkies - Monday 23 June 2003

Say the word kebab and I think Impromptu indigestion from grease shock in the wee hours somewhere on Edgware Road.

With over 2,000 kebab joints in London Town, do we really need another place which serves up our favourite post-booze snack?

The good people in Willesden Green have raved long and hard about their Shish, the buzzy designer joint serving up admittedly very tasty variants of the food skewers.

They should be forgiven; after all, there seems to be little else to rave about in NW2. It is less bearable that the Hoxton mullet boys can now join the choir as Shish opens up its new locale in Old Street.

This joint comes with a decent bar, too – creative forces involved in Buddha Bar, Atlantic and Lab have been consulted to cater to all your needs – so you can work up your appetite for another skewer.
