I bo-kan-not believe how good my meal at @bokanlondon was 😍 🌱 (Swipe to see multiple photos)
It’s fair to say that we now have a plethora of amazing vegan options in London but vegan high end dining? 🤷🏼♀️ That’s something that’s still a little hard to come by 🤔 Well, I’ve found just the spot 👀
Picture this: Sat on the 37th floor of a building, surrounded by New York esque decor, being served some of the most beautiful dishes by the friendliest waiters and waitresses, whilst watching the sun set over iconic London landmarks. That’s what you can expect 😍
Chris and I donned our glad rags, tottered up the tower and tucked into:
🍓 Tofu cream with strawberries 🍅 Tomato & peach salad with aged basalmic (my dish of the night)
🍎 Beetroot, avocado, apple & balsamic tartare with figs
🍅 Roasted tomato stuffed with aubergine, courgette, tomato & onion ratatouille on a bed of olive & onion marmalade tapenade, served with chilli peppers (also stuffed with ratatouille) 🥒 Grapefruit with rice and cucumber
🍧 Coriander, parsley, mint and lime sorbet with figs and crackers .
It’s clear that @chef.aurelie knows exactly what she’s doing. The combination of natural flavours and contrasting textures were incredible 👏🏼 Everything was fresh and bursting with flavour but my favourite dishes were the tomato & peach salad and beetroot tartare! They also gave me some bonus pineapple sorbet and it was phenom! ❤️
At £65pp, this isn’t a bad deal for a high end tasting menu. Wine pairing can be added for £40 and please make sure you give at least 24 hours notice for the vegan menu so that the chef can prepare accordingly 🌱
