Brindisa comes to Brixton with the Brindisa Food Rooms

Brindisa comes to Brixton with the Brindisa Food RoomsUpdated with revised launch details.

Brindisa continues to expand all over London. Having recently gone east with Tramontana Brindisa in Shoreditch, they're now heading south to Brixton for a new shop and bar - the Brindisa Food Rooms.

This new opening won't have a fully fledged restaurant attached - it's much more similar to their Borough Market offering. They'll be set up under two railway arches just around the corner from Brixton Market - with one being the bar and the other the shop (where anything offered in the bar can be bought).

The food in the bar will centre around the idea of the Catalan Llesquerias that Brindisa founder Monika Linton (that's her on the right) ate at in Barcelona when she lived there in the 80s. So they'll be focusing on llescas - "a slice of toasted country bread, rubbed with sweet tomato, lavishly covered with generous slices of cured ham, salchichon, cheese, anchovies, grilled chorizo or botifarra served with a pot of homemade alioli and a simple salad."

From the shop next door, there will be cheeses (manchegos, goats’ milk cheese and torta cheeses), hams and meats, salt cod, fruit and vegetables direct from Barcelona, rotisserie chicken pollastre a l’ast and lots more. We can only hope that they'll also have kikones - the Brindisa version may well be Hot Dinners' favourite snack ever.

The Brindisa Food Rooms bar opens at 6.30pm in February (the shop is already open) in Brixton at 41-43 Atlantic Road, London, SW9. It'll be for walk-ins only and a soft launch is planned (date TBC).
