Malaka Spice has announced the launch of a seasonal menu, especially for its vegan and vegetarian patrons. The new menu is crafted to celebrate the flavours of indigenous vegetables. Along with popular vegetarian options such as tofu and mushroom, guests can experience local ingredients that are rarely used in restaurants such as Arbi (taro root), Karela (bitter gourd), Torai (sponge gourd) and much more. The restaurant will be integrating the local ingredients with South East Asian recipes.
“At Malaka Spice we are always experimenting with new concepts and fresh ingredients. The idea behind creating this menu was to let vegetables take the centre stage, as they are often considered as side dishes or used to enhance the main ingredients which are mostly meats. Ever since we have set up Cherish Farms, most of the fruits and vegetables used at the restaurants are grown in-house and we wanted make the best of the diverse produce we receive each season”, stated Ilvika Chandawarkar, Research and Business development, Head at Chiranjeev Restaurant and Foods Pvt Ltd.
The Veggie Table is a well-researched menu, packs a punch of flavours and offers an immense variety to our vegetarian and vegan guests. Most of the dishes in the menu are also naturally vegan” added Rohan Mahabal, Executive at Chiranjeev Restaurant and Foods Pvt Ltd.
The menu will feature an array of signature dishes such as Fried Bitter Gourd Salad, Tempura Eggplant Bao, Cherish Farm Special Vegetable Tempura, Silken Tofu with Avocado, Mix Gourd Kurma, Lemoni Yam with Sweet Potato, Fried Arbi on Rendang Paste and much more. The Veggie Table is an a la carte menu and will be available at Koregaon Park and Kharadi.
