  • Nice space, interesting food

Greenhouse Canteen has downsized from its earlier incarnation as The Greenhouse Factory, but in various ways is nicer - the smaller space is cosy yet open. Two of us had stuffed zucchini flowers, Buffalo cauliflower 'wings', my friend had a hot chocolate, and we finished with a slice of lemon passionfruit cheesecake. The zucchini flowers had a good almond feta filling and pesto. You don't get a lot, but they were nice. The cauli 'wings' are a great idea, but were disappointing. Usually 'wings' are supposed to be spicy, though i understand that the Canteen offers them as "mildly spiced." Ok by me, but more salt and a little more spice - which doesn't necessarily mean heat - could really make this dish a winner. As it was, both the wings themselves and the accompanying dip rocketed up the bland-o-meter. My friend enjoyed her hot chocolate and we finished up with a lemon passionfruit cheesecake (vegan of course). This was a great choice to finish - well presented with a tangy sauce and a touch of whipped creme nicely complementing the cake itself. I would give the Canteen 5 stars, if not for the lacklustre cauli wings. But i'm sure they can iron things like this out, and i look forward to returning.
