finally made it to @sepps | Giuseppe Federici vegan pop-up at @boxhallcity …⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Giuseppe’s Kitchen ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ I got there at 11:55 - within minutes the queue built up behind me - really exciting to see. So many people showing up for vegan food!⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ I ordered the Nonna’s walnut bolognese, the pesto arancini, and the biscoff tiramisu.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Starting with the bolognese - this was absolutely delicious. It had such a good depth of flavour. The walnut ragu was quite light but integrated nicely through the spaghetti. I’m pretty sure the vegan cheese on top is @JULIENNEBRUNO as well, which felt like a bit of a treat considering they aren’t stocking in shops atm. PLEASE START STOCKING AGAIN. Overall, I loved this. It was £14, a generous portion, and the quality was high.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Next, the arancini. These were pesto-rice filled, and I also ordered pesto on the side… which in hindsight maybe I should have ordered the marinara for difference. That being said, they were nice. The rice was cooked perfectly, the pesto was great, and the outside had a really good crisp to it. There was some flaky salt on top which I loved, but I do think they could have done with a little more salt inside just to bring everything out a bit more. When you got a bite with the salt on top though, they were really good.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ And then the tiramisu. This is the one I was most curious about. I believe the flavour changes, this time it was Biscoff. I completely understand the idea of making something that’s a bit more Instagrammable, but for me, this leaned slightly more towards that than just letting a classic tiramisu shine. I usually love Biscoff, and I found this one a bit too sweet for me personally. Good texture though.⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ Overall, the food quality is there, the portions are generous, and the energy around this pop-up is genuinely exciting. It’s really nice to see this level of hype around vegan food, especially Italian.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ I’m really looking forward to see what Sepps does next. If this turns into something more permanent, I’ll definitely be back⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ #veganfood #plantbasedfood #vegancommunity #veganlondon #veganfoodie⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ - @plantbasedbambi
