Nieves Barragán Mohacho’s guide to Shoreditch

The London-based, Spanish chef shares her guide to restaurant hopping in Shoreditch, the location of her newest opening, Legado

About the list

Shoreditch, for me, is like my new Soho. It’s got nice restaurants and bars, and amazing independent shops. What I’m starting to do is jump from one restaurant to another, having a dish and a glass here, a dish and a glass there – it reminds me of Northern Spain and how I go out with my friends. I’ve taken some of the Legado team out on this tour and it was so much fun. Within 200 metres of Legado you have amazing restaurants, so it’s nice to hop between them.

Let’s start from the taberna at Legado. Legado is a restaurant, but then we have the taberna where we serve dishes from Northern and Southern Spain – pintxos and tapas – to eat with your hands. I start with a nice vermouth and pintxos from Navarra – we have one with champiñones and prawn.

I love Smoking Goat; I’ve been going there for years. A nice cold beer and chicken wings are my go-to order. Perfect!

I love to have a nice glass of wine here; sometimes they do a wine of the week. I’ll drink that with something from the specials. I also love the bread they do with anchovies and I’ll sometimes have the turbot, but often, I just go for the greens, maybe some oysters.

I love the daikon bao here. Sometimes I can have three of them in one go!

I like to sit at the bar and have a nice cocktail with the amazing chicken kebabs with devilled spice from the bar snacks menu. I love a tasting menu, but I like the interaction of going to different places to have something unique in each.
