If might only be halfway through a meal at this chic restaurant that you realise everything you’re wolfing down is vegetarian, but the vegetarians at the other table are more than a little delighted to finally have a restaurant that doesn’t make the veggie option an afterthought. It’s on full throttle here, serving up vegetarian versions of popular cafe and bistro grub, as well as Asian favourites like sushi and double-boiled soups. There’s a distinct Japanese inspiration at work here, with a sophisticated zen energy, which carries through to the beautifully minimalist (and healthy!) plates. Think a salad of meaty oyster mushrooms doused in a savoury-sweet sauce, paired with an elegant soup of burdock roots and monk fruit for a balancing appetizer to kick start the meal. Mains here heat up a little in the form of crusty pizzas, like the Traditional Pomodoro Pizza topped with a variety of tomatoes and melty cheese, as well as pasta, like a rich and savoury Salted Egg Pasta. Japanese cafe favourites are given a nod, such as in the Japanese Curry Noodles with Bean Curd Roll, a tangle of chewy udon noodles coated in sweet curry with meaty mushrooms and dumpling-like beancurd rolls. One of the popular favourites here is the Sizzling Quinoa Brown Rice, some of the healthiest grains on the planet given the hot-stone treatment, studded with nuts, vegetables, and other healthy things. Wind down with a signature Lemongrass Latte, and that unbeatable healthy glow that comes with an all-plant meal! (Jan 2018)
