A kebab restaurant might be the last place you'd consider for Christmas dinner, but Old Street's Shish is hoping to tempt diners with an exotic alternative to turkey and trimmings. Their Christmas menu, at £22.50 per head, offers dishes from China, Uzbekistan, Persia and Lebanon with a festive flavour. Starters include goose liver, apple and wild rice boulani with sweet and spicy dipping sauce, while mains feature duck with pear and sage stuffing.
