The Bromley Buzz team loves having a good time, whether that means food and drink, theatre, nature, historic and iconic locations, or simply being around some of Bromley’s positive people.
We know that Bromley has some excellent places to dine in or for takeout food and drink. Just check out our Instagram to see images of some of them. One of the best-known and perhaps the most award-winning is the Shampan Group, which has restaurants in Bromley’s Chatterton Road, and in Welling and Westerham. Lately, they have come up with a culinary innovation.
The Shampan at the Spinning Wheel in Westerham has a new lunchtime menu, plus a new alfresco outdoor dining space. The new ‘Tiffin lunch’ is based on a small plates offer of beautifully presented and superbly tasty food that can be chosen from curated sets or singly. From a luscious paneer dish, to perfectly cooked and spiced prawns, and juicy chicken, and rather a lot more, there is plenty to choose from.
Executive Chef Sadek Miah sets the standard for the food at the Shampan restaurants, having worked in each of the Group‘s restaurants for nearly 20 years in all. Speaking with us before the Tiffin Lunch launch in August, he said, “You can come to any of the Shampan restaurants and enjoy a light meal at lunchtime. A single main course with rice or naan, or one or two carefully selected starters, alongside a refreshing cocktail, such as the ever-popular Mojito or Virgin Mojito, can provide a lovely interlude in the daytime and set you up for the rest of the day. The new Tiffin Lunch goes a step further in providing even more choice.”
The lighter side doesn’t stop there, as Sadek said, “When we provide outside catering, for example at the Bromley BuzzUp events, and recently Limpsfield Chart’s Street Food event, the starters and side dishes and mains served without the richest sauces are often popular.”
“If you would like to explore Indian food on the lighter side at a Shampan restaurant, do come and try it out, or talk with us about options for catering for your event. We are just as warm and professional when out and about as we are in our own restaurants.”
The Shampan Group is one of the sponsors of the Bromley Buzz podcast, and we are grateful for their support. The Group likes to be part of the community and supports a number of clubs and good causes both here and overseas. All three venues can host events, with the most eye-catching and capacious being the Shampan at the Spinning Wheel. The Group has its 35th Anniversary on 11th September and has a special offer to diners in celebration. See the Shampan website for details.
