press meal YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS, PORK CRACKLING & ROAST CHICKEN…. OH MY! LD’S KITCHEN HAS GOT IT ALL WITH THEIR VEGAN SUNDAY ROAST DINNER OFFERING IN LONDON 😮
@lds.kitchen have brought their vegan roasts to London and they don’t hold back on portions
LD’s Kitchen offers three roasts, all served with garlic & rosemary roast potatoes 🥔 a Yorkshire pudding 🌱 collard garlic greens 🥬 roasted sweet potato, swede & basil purée 🍠 creamy mustard, leeks & spinach 🥬 maple & fennel glazed carrots 🥕 and a Guinness and southern style gravy.
🐔 Roast Chicken: Made from seitan, tofu & jackfruit, with a rosemary & garlic glazed
faux skin
💭 I like their wings but in this format, the texture was too soft and it tasted too much like seitan
🐷 Roast Pork Belly & Crackling: Roasted tofu marinaded with maple mustard sauce and a garlic & thyme butter
💭 The tofu was flavoured beautifully. I got a little crunch from the crackling but it was quite chewy (maybe accurate – I haven’t had crackling in yonks)
🏆 Fave
🐮 Beef Steak: Made from seitan & mushrooms, marinated in a red wine and chargrilled with sage & garlic butter
💭 Not bad! The seitan flavour didn’t do it for me but the marinade was nice. Not much like a steak but nice to have something with a bit of bite
🧀 Truffled cauli cheese
💭 Tasty! Creamy & sweet but not sickly
💭 Overall: Vegan roasts are tough as meat is the main focus so I appreciate the effort the LD’s Kitchen team have put into such a tough task. Some worked, some didn’t. The potatoes were glorious. The yorkies were the best I’ve had anywhere – light & fluffy. The roasts are HEARTY. I’d personally like two size options. The veg was well flavoured but there was a lot of it eg the puree made the dish too sweet. The gravy was tasty but a little thin. Creatively, this is an impressive menu. I’d go back but wanted to give honest feedback
💰 Roasts: £16, Cauli cheese: £5
🍨 They offer a couple of desserts. We had the waffles & ice cream with a biscoff sauce and it was great
