October 8, 2010: Zenzero Blu Ii

Edit 11/03/2012: Zenzero Blu has immediately been replaced past times Pinotta.
 
our see a yr ago, they are willing to serve a vegan adaptation for large pre-booked groups together with my recent revisit was equally business office of such a group.

They started us off amongst warmed marinated olives.  Though I'm far from an olive lover, I ventured to gustation a couplet of these together with almost enjoyed them!  They were marinating inwards a really pleasant olive oil, amongst roughly bites tasting of aniseed together with others of garlic.

The olives were followed past times hummus, a Moroccan lentil dip together with roti.  The lentil dip was our hands-down favourite together with the roti had a prissy smokiness cheers to roughly charred grill marks.

After a chip of a wait, nosotros were served amongst a dish of pumpkin soup each.  The stock base of operations was prissy together with salty, but it wasn't otherwise anything remarkable.

Then a really long hold off ensued.  It was past times 9pm together with we'd had roughly prissy entrees, but nosotros were nevertheless rather hungry.
The nutrient drought was in conclusion broken close 9:30pm when were were presented amongst these Dutch cream potatoes flavoured amongst garlic, fennel together with rosemary.  Referring to the card it looked suspiciously equally if nosotros mightiness convey missed 2 courses; thankfully these arrived acre nosotros were chowing downwards on the spuds.  It may convey been the hunger overriding reason, but wow.  These roast potatoes were spectacular.  Golden, crispy together with savoury-spiced on the outside, creamy equally advertised inside.  I reckon I could swallow these daily together with never teach sick of them.

The porcini mushroom together with pumpkin arancini evoked neither porcini nor pumpkin. (The 2 mushroom-haters close me ate them without wrinkling their noses at all.)  But they had the correct texture together with were pretty expert dredged through the sugo sauce. I beloved the presentation amongst the psychodelic herb-oil fringe.

The crostini amongst caponata together with salsa verde arrived really slowly inwards the repast but were good received.

It was together with hence that the chefs made a curious serving determination - out came large communal plates of pumpkin together with sage risotto together with private bowls of the side salad. I would ordinarily await the converse! The risotto was a expert one, but betwixt the pumpkin soup together with arancini I felt equally if we'd already covered these flavours together with textures tonight.

The salad featured bitter rocket leaves, which concealed apples, dates together with walnuts. It was the correct punchy counterpoint to the risotto.

home-made kokosnoot icecream to be, together with in all likelihood fifty-fifty improve than the really exceptional 1 nosotros tried at Vegans Choice inwards Sydney.  It was a chip brusk on the lime for my gustation but oh, the texture was incredible.

It's all actually an incredible bargain at only $25.  Some dishes are a fiddling unimaginative but all of them were really good executed together with a couplet are absolute gems.  It's a corking venue for gathering together a grouping of friends together with enjoying their fellowship over a few hours, a few dishes together with maybe a few wines.
