A bustling Turkish restaurant close to Ladbroke Grove Underground Station that cooks amazing Turkish BBQ'd meats. Great takeaway or fun with a few friends to eat in, as it's BYOB. If you're feeling hungry, get the special mix. Also the mezze starters are tasty too...actually everything is!Read more

After Sunday
‘Maybe that’s what cooking is, you know. Home in a pocket.’ Occupational therapist Naomi really needs her new Caribbean cooking group to go well. Her participants, Ty, Daniel and Leroy, each have their own reasons for joining - and it certainly isn’t all about the food. As the three men cautiously embrace the group, they start to share their recipes and take turns as head chef. Soon, the smells of their cooking transform the secure hospital around their kitchen, and memories of home and their lives outside begin to resurface. With the hospital’s Family Day fast approaching and the group set to cater, their new-found trust is tested and tensions threaten to boil over. As they struggle to break the cycles of their past, Naomi is forced to reckon with whether this group can really be the recipe for change she hoped it might become. The absorbing debut play from Bush Writers’ Group alumni Sophia Griffin, After Sunday is a searing look into the lives of four people grappling with the reality of a dehumanising system. This world premiere production is directed by Belgrade Theatre Artistic Director Corey Campbell (Romeo and Juliet), and features live cooking on stage.

About Shepherd's Bush
Shepherd's Bush (also Shepherds Bush) is an area of west London in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, situated 4.9 miles (7.9 km) west of Charing Cross. Although it is primarily residential in character, its focus is the shopping area of Shepherds Bush Green, the north side of which is home to the Westfield shopping centre, the largest urban shopping centre in Europe. The south side also has a smaller shopping centre, West 12, with a supermarket, cinema and gym. The main thoroughfares are Uxbridge Road, Goldhawk Road and Askew Road, all containing a large number of small and mostly independent shops, pubs and restaurants. It is bordered by Hammersmith to the south/south-west, Brook Green to the south/south-east, Holland Park (and then Notting Hill) to the east, Willesden and Harlesden to the north and by Acton and Chiswick to the west.
