Baked Baby Heirloom Beetroot ($15)

Seasoned with thyme, garlic, sea salt and pepper, the baby golden and red heirloom beetroots are roasted at high heat to render this appetising starter. Topped with shallot rings, seeded rye crisps as well as caramelised walnut pieces, dressed with olive oil and pomegranate molasses.

The Impossible™ Sausage Roll ($19)

Flanking a filling of Impossible™ mince with white onions, button mushrooms, garlic and roasted cashew nuts. The moreish mixture is enveloped within an aromatic vegan pastry skin, served with a side of garden salad and homemade onion jam.

Thai Green Curry Pot Pie ($19)

A spice lover’s choice, the Thai Green Curry Pot Pie features pumpkin, eggplant and snow peas cooked in a fragrant coconut gravy that is rich and punchy, and covered with a sunflower seed-studded vegan pastry skin. Tame the heat with pineapple and herb salsa atop the pastry.

Charred Cauliflower Steak ($20)

Light and refreshing, the ‘steak’ is pan-seared then roasted in the oven. Topped with rocket and shallot rings, its texture is further elevated with roasted almond flakes, served with almond, caper and raisin salsa.

The Impossible™ Mushroom Swiss ($22; $26 with fries)

This hearty burger comprises a satisfying patty made with Impossible™ mince, fresh red onions, tomato slices, rocket, sautéed mushroom, vegan Daiya cheese and vegan truffle mayonnaise,  sandwiched between house-made eggless quinoa-studded buns.
