Say “mallow” 👋🏼 to the FIRST 100% vegan restaurant in @boroughmarket – @mallowlondon 🌱 {press meal}
This stunning venue opens on Monday and is brought to us by the team behind beloved @mildredsrestaurants (who are also 100% vegan now 🌱 did you know?) 🥳
I went in for their brunch but am going to have to go back to try their lunch and dinner menus because @martacanga & I simply could not fit it all in our stomachs 😂
Here’s what we tried:
🌱 Mushroom croque monsieur
💰 £9
🏆 Fave dish
🌱 Full English w/ scrambled tofu, maple baked beans, mushroom, potatoes, sausages, kale & sourdough toast
💰 £13
🌱Red lentil dahl, labneh, flatbread
💰 £7
🌱Smashed pea & almond feta on sourdough toast
💰 £7
🥞 Apple cinnamon pancakes with date butter
💰 £9
🌱 Market brunch with scrambled tofu, chopped salad, Turkish pepper, labneh, pickles & flatbread
💰 £12
💭The brunch menu isn’t a world away from the Mildred’s one. I really enjoyed my first ever vegan croque monsieur – it was creamy, rich, herby & comforting. The big brekkie is a really decent size and they include potatoes – praise be. The dahl was nice but I would’ve preferred it to have some bolder flavours – felt more like a winter soup to me. Pancakes needed more toppings imo. The almond feta was interesting – it had a sharp tang but I wasn’t sure about the flavour. Market brunch is nice if you’re after a more healthy option but I’m all about the hearty numbers babeh so if I went back, I’d be getting the big brekkie or croque monsieur. I’m super excited to try the lunch and dinner menu though as the menu looks amazing and exactly what we need more of on the vegan scene. Hooray to the Mildred’s team for infiltrating a normally very meat focused market! 👏🏼
