Lantana in Shoreditch and Fitzrovia to launch evening Shin Digs

Lantana to launch evening Shin DigsUpdate 23/01/15 - the Shin Digs are having a mini re-launch with a new group chef Oliver Rowe in charge of the menu. It's from 27th - 29th January (you'll need to book) and they'll have 50% off the menu.  

Lantana currently has two popular cafés run by Shelagh Ryan and Michael Homan -  one in Fitzrovia and another in Shoreditch, the latter specifically based on Melbourne cafés.

Until now, they've been strictly daytime affairs - but now they're both going to open in the evening under a new name "Shin Dig". 


What you need to know about Shin Dig

There's not just one Shin Dig, but two as both cafés will be opening for dinner at the same time. They're looking to expand the influence of the Melbourne cafe scene into the evening.

The menu has now been revamped for January 2015. There will be smaller dishes such as Grilled morcilla with kimichi romesco, crispy pork belly with Lantana plum ketchup, chilli and sesame. The Surf part of the menu will have a Pan-fried hake with braised kale, chilli, tahini and toasted pumpkin seeds Turf- Grilled onglet with beetroot and potato dauphinoise, roast shallots and wasabi relish Earth- spinach gnocchi with wild mushrooms, hazelnut pesto, baked ricotta, crispy parsley and lemon. 

The Lantana banana bread will be putting in an appearance too. This will be toasted and comes with banana custard and salted chocolate crumb, or their homemade ice cream (rum and raisin, rhubarb and ginger or salted caramel).

And there's a new wine list too, coming from Michael Homan and Vagabond Wines. Bottles will start at £22, Champagne will be from £45 a bottle and Prosecco at around £25 per bottle. And they'll obviously be doing a mean flat white too.

 Where are they? Fitzrovia (13 Charlotte Place, London W1T1SN) and Shoreditch (1 Oliver's Yard, 55 City Rd, London EC1Y 1HQ)

And when do they open? 11 September 2014, Tuesday – Saturday from 5.30pm – 11pm.
