Everything should come with a side of gravy. There, I said it 🤷🏼♀️ {complimentary meal}
Adding @billsrestaurant to the list of @weareveganuary menus I reeeally want to stay beyond Jan 🤞🏼They’re offering some quite unique dishes. Here’s what Chris & I ate and thought:
🌱 Vegan duck salad w/ chilli, coriander, spring onions, cucumber, carrots, cabbage & baby gem tossed in a miso dressing w/ sesame seeds & lime
💰 £5.95
✏️ This was great! Texture & taste were VERY realistic and it was a generous portion. I liked the little chilli kick and the hoisin flavour was beaut. Would’ve liked more sesame seeds & spring onions
🌱 Crispy fried cauliflower w/ red pepper dip
💰 £5.95
✏️ Chris loved these, but I wasn’t as keen. They’re lightly fried and not too oily but I found them a little bland and could only eat a few. Would’ve preferred a sweet chilli dip with more heat 🔥
🌱 Bill’s Wellington made of carrot, cashew nuts, & mushrooms with butterbean mash, tenderstem broccoli & rich vegetable gravy
💰 £11.95
✏️ An absolute WINNER. Loved this! The butterbean mash is creamy & moreish. The pastry on the wellington was perfect – crispy but soft on the inside, and I loved the spices and textures. The gravy worked really well too. Would definitely order again!
🌱 Aubergine & lentil dhal w/ cherry tomatoes, coriander, toasted almonds & grilled flatbread
💰 £10.95
✏️ This didn’t do it for either of us. The veggies were fresh but the flavours weren’t strong or authentic. It was a bit watery and too sweet for me. The pitta also needed to be chunkier & fluffier
🌱 The @movingmountainsfoodsburger 🍔 with a MM patty, lettuce, tomato, red onion and mayo on a bun served with fries
💰 £11.50 (we also added vegan cheese for £1.35)
✏️ I love the MM patty but this burger was a bit too packed for me. I think ‘less is more’ in a burger. The cheese wasn’t melted and added no flavour, the tomato made it soggy & I would’ve preferred less onion. There was also more bread than patty. Needs adjustments but could be delicious!
