Lunching at Ottolenghi's

We made our way to Spittlefields to have lunch at one of the many Ottolenghi restaurants in London, and were not disappointed. We started with a selection of breads with olive oil - delicious.

Ian chose the lamb dish with the basmati rice, wild rice, fennel, pickled apricot and crispy shallots, and the green beans, grilled courgette, cherry tomatoes and basil dressing salad. I chose the sweet potato, roasted shallots and goats cheese tart, which I combined with two salads - aubergine, tahini, spicy chickpeas, pomegranate molasses and mint, and the other char-grilled broccoli, chilli and garlic. We were very full at the conclusion of the meal, so couldn’t squeeze in desert. Luckily, we were able to arrange to take away some cakes from the deli to have for afternoon tea later in the day.Leer más
