Asian Flair Meets Pub Tradition | Nottingham News

Billy Mantle, the visionary chef behind the smash-hit SHIO, has brought his bold Asian-infused twist to The Reindeer, a historic village pub that’s been closed for six months and is now reimagined as a culinary destination. With a permanent SHIO trailer serving street food in the garden and a revamped menu blending British classics with inventive Asian flavors—think tuna-topped hash browns or gochujang-glazed lamb—Mantle’s 28-year-old passion project is already drawing locals and promising to lure in visitors from afar. From his family’s kitchen roots to his time in Japan and lockdown success with dine-at-home boxes, Mantle’s journey back to the stove has culminated in this idyllic pub setting, complete with cricket-field views and a refreshed bar. Since reopening, the buzz has been overwhelming—proof that tradition meets innovation, and the pub is thriving. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
