The original Mangal Ocakbasi is a 25 year old charcoal grill hit in Dalston, often lauded by chefs and an early example of how Londoners are only too happy to queue for some great comfort food.
And now they're making a move into Shoreditch, taking over the spot that's soon to be vacated by Jubo (who now have their own restaurant). They'll be appearing at the Comedy Café Theatre & Bedroom Bar serving up some classics from the original menu.
So you can expect lamb chops, their kebabs straight off the charcoal grill, fresh Mediterranean salads and vegetarian meze dishes too. If you haven't been to the original restaurant in Dalston - then this will be a must.
Mangal 1.1 will be at The Comedy Cafe and Bedroom Bar at 68 Rivington St London, Greater London EC2A 3AY from 16 October. They'll be open for lunch Monday to Friday, and dinner Monday to Saturday. For more, follow them on Twitter @mangal1_1. They'll have 50% off food at lunch until 23 October.
