Executive Chef Tom Cenci said, “Although we have the word ‘duck’ in our name, the team actually love creating dishes with vegetables – it’s amazing how versatile and delicious they can be with just a bit of creativity”.
The Veg & Waffle dish joins vegetarian staples on the menu like spinach & ricotta ravioli and puy lentils with miso and nasturtiums and coal-roasted beetroot. In addition, Rich Woods – AKA The Cocktail Guy – has crafted a slate of veggie-spiked serves that are equal parts nutritious and delicious.
Named ‘Drink your Greens’ The menu includes an Artichoke Negroni, a Caramelized Red Onion Manhattan, and a Pina-Kale-Ada, with coconut washed Bacardi Superior, distilled pineapple, kale and citrus.
Rich Woods said “The mighty vegetable is long overlooked as a more than suitable replacement to fruit in many a classic cocktail. Naturally sweet, nourishing and enriching – not to mention they are damn tasty. For National Vegetarian Week I wanted to celebrate all that is great about some of our loved (and not so loved) garden particulars and shine a light on their versatility in some of my favourite alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails.”
It may be packed with greens but it’s not rabbit food by any means…
