Las Iguanas

But they didn't need the haloumi. Would have been just as good with veggies only. Big portion as well. Great flavour!

People in my local vegan group were raving about Iguanas even before it opened, so naturally I had to go check it out. There aren't too many vegan options but the few it has, looked very promising. I really wanted to try the moqueca de palmitos (Brazilian curry) and it did not disappoint - very interesting flavour, it looks like a Thai curry but tastes very different. My partner had the veggie chili (the mushroom fajita wasn't available) which he liked but I thought was slightly too sour. Portion sizes were generous; I had half of mine for lunch the next day.

Then we had the coconut dessert (there's actually a selection of vegan desserts which is cool) and both thought it was yummy. It's a bit like a panna cotta but even nicer texture. We also had long island cocktails which were 2 for 1.

The staff were friendly and helpful. One of them discussed Miyazaki films with us (I was wearing my Tofuro t-shirt) :D

All in all, if you're looking for new flavours, definitely a place to go. But as with all omni places, the vegan selection is small.
