OTARIAN restaurant launch party review

This week saw the launch party for new veggie fast food chain OTARIAN... and seeing as it had my name practically in the name O "Tara"rian (kinda) I HAD TO GO! This place is in the heart of Soho on 181-183 Wardour Street - if your in central you have to pop in!

1st to arrive we began tucking into the vegetarian fast food feast.....

This was the first thing we tried - it was a tasty pesto dressed tomato, mozzarella & avocado salad - simply yummy!

Field mushroom burgers - these were OK but eating a burger without the meat feels wrong!

cheesy bean wraps that blew our heads off - seriously spicy guys!

The vegetarian tacos were Leon's favorite - they blew his head off and regrettably he went back for seconds - lovely crunchy tacos but the chillies blew your mouth to Brazil!

Elliott & I loving the pasta we craved all night

Penne & super rich tomato sauce (almost kinda sun blushed taste) with cheese - good comfort eat

Ahhh the good old sweet potato fries - these were like southern fried texture but even better coating - we all must have had about 5 servings each of these when they were passed out - greedy - but had to be done!

- who can fault anything with cheese in? - really?! cheesey wrap with dill

Beany cheesy wraps - again spice city but beans are good for you so riding the spice is worth it!

this was a fancy healthy salad - and was far too hard to eat with those forks - could you?!

pilau vegetable rice dish - nice indian home cooked taste

Tom Waits loved drinking the Freedom Organic beeeeeeeer!

creme brulee - it was very creamy & super dreamy

Yogurt & fruit compote looked fab but not my thing

Me, Matty WEST ROCKS & Tom Waits enjoying some chocolate mousse

The whole COOKING ROCKS tasting crew; WEST ROCKS, Recognise Magazine, No Time For Heroes, Elliott's Film production team & Raw Power Management - alright!

Otarian is also good to the planet - its ethic is to lower carbon emissions and have a more sustainable planet and all in all you will be a better person if you spend ur lunch money here! - plus they spent over £1 million in researching the recipes, so go try it as we did!
