Emma Mykytyn Home by Simon Rogan unveils new sharing and tasting menus
Home by Simon Rogan is expanding its nationwide dining-at-home service with the introduction of a new monthly sharing menu and six-course tasting experience.
Launching this September, the new menus offer two different ways to enjoy Simon Rogan’s farm-to-table cooking at home, from relaxed gatherings with friends and family to restaurant-style meals for special occasions.
The latest additions have been developed by Sam Nash, e-commerce and events partnerships executive chef at UMBEL Hospitality. Nash is leading the continued development of Home by Simon Rogan alongside Simon Rogan’s wider programme of events and collaborations.
A sharing menu made for entertaining
The new two-course sharing menu has been designed to make entertaining at home easier while maintaining the quality, seasonality and careful sourcing associated with Simon Rogan’s restaurants.
At the centre of the menu is locally reared meat supplied by Lake District Farmers. This is accompanied by seasonal sides and sauces made using ingredients grown at Our Farm, Simon Rogan’s regenerative farm in the Cartmel Valley.
The meal is completed with a dessert created for everyone at the table to share.
Prices for the sharing menu start from £180 for four people, with nationwide delivery available.
A six-course tasting menu at home
For celebrations and special occasions, the new six-course tasting menu offers a more immersive dining experience.
The menu follows the rhythm of a restaurant tasting menu, beginning with dishes highlighting the latest harvest from Our Farm. This is followed by a fish or vegetable course, a main course and a seasonal dessert.
Each dish is delivered with detailed reheating, preparation and plating instructions written by the chefs. Diners can therefore serve every course at the intended pace while recreating the presentation and precision of a Simon Rogan restaurant meal in their own kitchen.
The six-course tasting menu is available for two people, with prices starting from £75 per person.
Sam Nash said:
“We wanted to create several new additions to our menu offering, to provide home diners with a broader choice, including something more casual designed to be shared and bring people together, as well as an elevated tasting menu experience for special occasions.
“All are made using the same seasonal, farm-led produce and techniques you would find in our restaurants. Both menus are a genuinely exciting addition to what we offer and a real reflection of where Home by Simon Rogan is heading.”
From lockdown project to nationwide dining brand
Home by Simon Rogan was originally launched in 2020 in response to the closure of restaurants during lockdown.
The service began by delivering carefully prepared three-course meals and menus created for seasonal occasions such as Christmas, New Year and Easter.
It has since developed into a wider online food and gifting range. The Home by Simon Rogan shop now includes handmade condiments, preserves, pickles and other small-batch products.
Many of these are prepared by Our Farm head chef Liam Fitzpatrick using surplus produce grown on the farm, helping to reduce waste while preserving ingredients at their seasonal best.
Seasonal gifts, hampers and special-occasion menus are also available.
The launch of the sharing and tasting menus marks the beginning of a new period of development for Home by Simon Rogan. The team plans to continue expanding the service while remaining focused on seasonality, sustainability and produce-led cooking.
Alongside the two new options, diners can continue to order the regular Home by Simon Rogan three-course menu for two, priced from £55 per person.
Every dish is prepared by Simon Rogan’s chefs in the Lake District using fresh ingredients from Our Farm and carefully selected produce supplied by local farmers and producers.
