It&#8217;s tucked behind its organic store and the food is made with organic love! I had their full menu deal for 22 EUR which came with a starter, an main dish, and dessert. My starter was some kind of faux-meat samosa that had traces of fennel and pecans. It also came with a brightly coloured salad of various greens and shaved carrots and beets. I never enjoyed beets raw before, but I could taste the garden in them and loved them! My main dish was their\u00a0Goulash Quorn and fava beans. \u00a0So perfectly seasoned and cooked I couldn&#8217;t tell\/didn&#8217;t care I wasn&#8217;t eating meat. Also joining the goulash was dark green steamed spinach, bright orange squashed glazed with something that was sweet and savoury at once, and a temple shaped mound of brown rice with topped with toasted almonds! It was so perfectly presented. Enough food for while still having white space on the plate! For dessert I had the beautifully dense chocolate pie with crust made from pecans and a graham cracker type base. I drank a glass of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.globalbeer.com\/belgian-beer\/joseph-spelt-ale\">Josef Ale,<\/a> which is also a bio beer.<\/p>\n<p>On my way out, I picked up some eggs and bananas and a load of bio beer and wine!
