10/01/2015: a deluge reviews as well as no-bookings policy meant that nosotros had no hope of obtaining a tabular array for 5 at 7:20 on a Th night. I wasn't also fazed; nosotros know enough of other great restaurants on Smith St, as well as at that spot was fifty-fifty closed to other i we'd been pregnant to try. Wood Spoon Kitchen is a cute niggling Japanese cafe merely a few shopfronts downwards from Gigibaba as well as its highly informative website had alerted me to its veg-friendly menu. With the vegetarian, vegan as well as gluten-free items clearly labelled, it begins amongst a diversity of flavoured onigiri, earlier listing an extensive ready of soups, a few don buri (rice bowls) as well as curries, earlier winding upward amongst sides, salads as well as desserts.
Having never eaten an onigiri before, I idea I'd hand the cheese curry i ($3.20) a try. The 'crumpled vintage cheese as well as basil inwards curry' melded beautifully into the rice, though I flora the cheese/nori combination a niggling incongruous.
Michael went for the vegetarian pumpkin curry ($12.90), closed to other mild as well as pleasant offering that wasn't quite memorable.
For my primary repast I ordered the pumpkin gnocchi inwards Lycopersicon esculentum kokosnoot soup ($10.90). This was a steaming bowl of thick broth, concealing a multitude of tender vegetables every bit good every bit the promised balls of pumpkin dough. It was the perfect comfort on this unseasonably cool evening.
Wood Spoon Kitchen's flavours aren't quite every bit fragile every bit those at the nearby Peko Peko, but it has enough else going for it. The setting as well as staff are charming, the nutrient is cheaper, as well as the bill of fare offers a make of veg-friendly snacks as well as meals dissimilar whatever other Japanese eating seat I've visited.
