Ex-Vanilla Black head chef Franco Casolin will head up the kitchen at Wulf & Lamb on 243 Pavilion Road (Sloane Square) early next week (2 October).
The 70-cover restaurant’s menu consists of breakfast, lunch and dinner offerings to eat in or take away.
Breakfast options comprise dairy, gluten and egg-free pastries; homemade berry granola with coconut yoghurt; and the full ‘Wulf Breakfast’ (potatoes, beans, lemon spinach and roasted tomato).
For lunch and dinner, the menu lists items such as the ‘chili non carne’ (a chili made with beans, mushrooms, cashew sour cream and spiced rice); ackee burrito with black beans; and the Wulf Burger (a secret recipe spicy bean and vegetable patty with lettuce, tomato, pickles and cashew aioli).
There will also be a menu of sandwiches, wraps and salad bowls with dishes including mango noodle salad with sugar snaps and greens; chargrilled broccoli salad with toasted umami crumbs and colourful radishes; coronation cauliflower with chargrilled cauliflower, coconut cream, vegetables and spices; and New York reuben on rye bread with marinated seitan, sauerkraut and mustard.
Cakes are being bought in from London Greenwich’s vegan artisan patisserie Ruby’s and will include triple chocolate cupcakes and rose pistachio donuts.
The space has been designed by Afroditi Krassa, a design studio that has worked with the likes of Flavour Bastard, Dishoom, and Curzon Cinemas. The 70-cover restaurant is bright, with both indoor and outdoor space.
Wulf & Lamb is the brainchild of Rosanna Von Zweigbergk and Philip Ryan and is one of a wave of new vegan restaurants opening or already open in the capital this year, including By Chloe, Essence Cuisine, the Vurger Co.
