![Zomato]( "Recensione")
I decided to get lunch from The Botanist at Lyall Bay for my first visit. They are highly popular by foodies/locals in Welly and serve modern vegan/vegetarian 🌱 friendly dishes, drinks, cocktails, etc.
Jalepino Poppers $13 🌶
I found the starter to be okay. The ranch sauce and the ricotta cheese had a nice, cooling taste to it. However the poppers were a tad too oily and the jalepino could have been more spicy for my taste.
Chickpea Bolinhos $12 🧆
Me and the old man liked the chickpea bolihos. It was easy to cut into and eat without too much grease or oil. The bolinhos had good flavours from the spices + chickpeas. Great job, complimented nicely with the baby spinach salad 🥗 and flavourful sundried tomato 🍅 mousse.
“Chicken” Tikka Burger $22 🍔🍟
I was happy with the presentation of the burger, which made it easy to cut into without too much mess. The patty was tasty, had a good crunch to it and it was quite filling. My only quirk was that there was a bit too much mustard sauce, which overpowered any taste coming from the yoghurt chutney.
Final Words
Overall, I enjoyed my first experience. There were some minor quirks that were not to my taste, but I will definitely come back to try the ”Fish” n Chip + the full dessert line after the lockdown ends.
Our go to brunch spot in welly! Great food and always fast service.
the vegan big breakfast is great, so are the pancakes. Definitely one of the best places for a vegan brunch. Is more on the expensive side but you get more than enough on your plate to warrant the price
