The Eatery Woodfired Grill at Belvedere Square in Claremont has a few vegan options on their menu worth making the trip.

Owner Marius Pieters has noticed the trend in people requesting plant-based options and like any smart business owner has responded accordingly. 

We started off sharing a simple Garden Salad which was fresh and crisp accompanied by a stunning lemon and mint dressing alongside a portion of the Vegan Chilli Poppers which were light, non-greasy and packed a punch!

The Veganista Burger is a patty of chopped veg with sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds topped with mushrooms, rocket and vegan mayo served with fries.

The other main course option was their version of a Mushroom Risotto but using lentils which was an exciting twist. Is was probably closer to a mushroom stew than risotto and anyone expecting risotto might be disappointed, but it was delicious and wholesome.

Another twist was dessert! A Popco Ice Lolly in a G&T!! I was designated driver, so I tried Bae’s, and it was refreshingly spot-on for a hot summers day.

It’s a chilled, family-friendly vibe and Marius is in the process of adding more options to the menu.
