The latest incarnation of the Gasometer has been opened upwards a yr together with a half, offering a steady current of gigs together with gastropub meals... except that the kitchen's but been rebranded Gas-Light Izakaya! We stopped inwards early on for dinner earlier swinging unopen to to the band room for Dan Kelly's album launch.
The carte du jour doesn't pay much remove heed to special dietary requirements - at that spot are to a greater extent than than plenty dishes to sate vegetarians, but vegans together with coeliacs are probable to get got a tougher fourth dimension of it.
The fried cauliflower florets ($9) were huge together with difficult to maneuvre alongside chopsticks, but had the correct ease of crunchiness together with tenderness. The accompanying sugariness together with sour sauce alone left us hankering subsequently the spicier version we've made at home.
The jalapeno together with cheese korokke ($5, foreground) was besides expertly fried, though nosotros were ambivalent close the warm mushy filling (Smith & Daughters has actually spoiled us for whatever other croquette!). We were to a greater extent than taken alongside the tofu bao ($6 each) together with especially their cerise dragon sauce.
Finally nosotros split upwards the tofu katsu-sando ($16), a nifty piffling sandwich of crumbed tofu, chilli enjoy together with mustard leaves on a soft brioche bun. The accompanying French fries were alone so-so, but it's a overnice together with reasonably priced self-contained meal.
With its nori-laced Caesar salad, fried chicken bao together with icecream doughnut sandwich, I catch that Gas-Light Izakaya is appealing to a greater extent than to local trends than Japanese traditions. The dishes nosotros tried mostly delivered on their descriptions, but they're but barely designed alongside veg*ns inwards mind. It'll function on to endure a convenient nutrient halt for a Gasometer gig, but I don't envisage making extra excuses to visit.
