After a few fallow years, Shoreditch's food scene has come roaring back. We've had the likes of One Club Row, Singburi and Angelina open there. Now, hoping to make a similar impact, is a high end deli that's more concept store than city centre supermarket. Nekter Deli.
The store's the passion project of US wine importer Jon Davey who supplies everyone from The Clove Club to Ynyshir. As you might imagine, wine is a core part of the business model boasting what they say is the only dedicated New World, New Wave wine list, with everything on the shelves made using natural, low intervention methods. Best of all, nearly every wine is going to be available by the glass and the top tier will be sold at the same price whether you're drinking in or taking away.
Nekter is both a trad store as well as somewhere to dine in. Small plates can be ordered have in, or take home (or have a very swish al-desko office lunch), including:
- Turmeric and Candied Fennel Seed Biscuits served with Chili Jam and St Jude’s Raw Cow’s Milk Cheese
- Duck Liver Mousse served with Sour Cherry biscuits
- N25 Oscietra Caviar Served with Torres Truffle crisps and sour cream.
As for the grocery side of the business, it's stocking cheeses from Neal’s Yard Dairy, charcuterie from Stokey's Meat Fish Cheese, fish from Secret Smokehouse and steaks from Provenance Butchers. They're promising to leverage their great connections with winemakers and producers to host talks, tastings and masterclasses soon.
