A new eatery could be opening in the centre of Oxford soon with new plans submitted. 

Kristiyan Rusinov has submitted plans to open The Greek Box and The Sushi Box at 19 - 20 St Clement's Street

This would replace Delhish Vegan Kitchen. 

The proposals, submitted to Oxford City Council, would result in new signage on the shop front and work to remove the existing roof cover. 

No comments in support or objection have been submitted in response to the plans.

“A new replacement aluminium shopfront will be installed, with fixed glazed bottom panels, fixed solid top panels and bi-fold glazed openable windows in the middle section.

“The existing awning above the shopfront and decorative tiles in the lower section will be removed and the building surface will be cleaned and made good.”

It added: “A new external kitchen extract ductwork is proposed in connection with a new internal extraction canopy and kitchen equipment.

“The ductwork will be fixed to the building via metal brackets and antivibration mounts to minimise transmission of vibration and noise to the rest of the building.

“The external ductwork will be painted in a terracotta colour to match existing facing brickwork, in order to minimise the visual impact and ensure it blends into the building as much as possible.

“The proposed system includes carbon filtration, a fan and silencer.”
