Bigger, lighter and brighter than the Shoreditch original, but with the same white-walled minimalist design and an identical menu, Rök Islington majors in Scandi-tinged dishes smoked over the coals, with much emphasis on pickled, cured and recherché ingredients. Brilliant staff are on hand to decode the intricacies of the menu.
Rok seems to tick all the trendy boxes: informal, Scandinavian, fermented fare, British produce, smoked things. But it certainly delivers. The food, from the homemade pickles to the cured meats, is genuinely surprising and delicious. Ask the waiter to translate some of the Swedish words and be sure to sit somewhere where you can see the chefs beavering away in the open kitchen.
