When two culinary forces join up to form the ultimate vegan-friendly hang-out spot, you\u2019d better believe the result is worth a visit (or a few). Melrose Arch\u2019s The Grind Coffee Shop and Hyde Park\u2019s Honest Food Store have opened a plant-based, vegan-friendly, healthy eatery \u2013 The Grind Greenery<\/strong> in Melrose Arch. Positioned just above The Grind Coffee Shop, it stays true to the Honest Food Store\u2019s ethos of creating healthy, holistic and honest living. After spending a festive evening at this new spot enjoying a delicious seven-course meal (our stomachs were bulging!), we feel we can say with certainty that the meals are must-trys. While the meals we sampled are not on the a la carte menu, they\u2019re available as event canap\u00e9s and it would be an injustice not to tell you about how delicious they are. For starters, we tried an oh-so-homely charred red pepper and tomato soup, then a colourful plate of smoked \u2018salmon\u2019 ribbons with pickled carrots and a papaya salad before we put our forks through The Shimeji \u2013 a turmeric risotto with a corn puree, popcorn and shimeji mushrooms. (It paired beautifully with Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon Blanc.) There are many ways to prepare the low-fat protein, tofu, and we have to tell you that the salsa verde tofu with kale chips, crispy peas and a spring oil is probably our favourite yet. Also try the nasu nibitashi … Asian braised eggplant. Not ones to shy away from dessert, we loosened our belt buckles and tucked into a blueberry sorbet shooter and raspberry cheesecake with pomegranate seeds and edible flowers. Sweetly decadent. There\u2019s also a range of tasty home-made, sugar-free, dairy-free and gluten-free snacks available downstairs at The Grind Coffee Shop. Mmm. Brekkie starts from R50 and lunch from R70.<\/p>\n
