A rare treat for me - a visit to a really great vegan restaurant to enjoy expertly prepared food without any dead animals, fish or dairy... Success!
During my visit to the London Crypto Currency Show, we took time out to find some nice vegan restaurants and The Gate was nearby to the conference hotel in Hammersmith.
Inside the decor is quite reserved and stylish, slightly 'posh' - and the quality of the food matched that vibe. Overall I recommend checking out such high quality restaurants as a way to be inspired and to remember that vegan food does not have to be bland or boring - it can be even more exciting than the other options.
I had the 'Green Dragon' which is a raw main course made to look like some kind of vegetable sea creature or dragon - with a great mix of raw ingredients: Salad of glazed smoked tofu, avocado, sweet potato, red cabbage, pak choi, daikon, carrot, peppers, with teriyaki & sesame dressing.
My charming dinner partner went for the Rotolo, a partially raw and partially heated mix of North African style ingredients and European imagination: Pommes dauphinoises filled with vegetables & chickpeas, served with raw cauliflower couscous, pickled lemon & coriander salsa.
The Gate has several locations in London, including Hammersmith, Marylebone and Islington - If you are in the area, I'm sure you won't regret stopping by.
Wishing you well,
Ura Soul
