A lovely girlfriend of mine - a fellow yogi who shares my love for vegetarian food - shared Arcane's greenmonday menu with me on a cold winter evening. It was oh-so tempting. We were so excited that we could make it to the last Monday of January before they stop serving it (says so on the menu; I haven't verified it afterwards though).一位同样爱yoga和素食的好友 一看到Arcane的 greenmonday menu便想起我了 : ) 庆幸能相约在一月的最后一个星期一 一尝这十分吸引的素食dinner menu!The setting is cosy and chillaxing.

一位同样爱yoga和素食的好友 一看到Arcane的 greenmonday menu便想起我了 : )
庆幸能相约在一月的最后一个星期一 一尝这十分吸引的素食dinner menu!
The setting is cosy and chillaxing. If one prefers more privacy, the table arrangement may not be well spaced out enough to accommodate that. Nevertheless, the restaurant has a pretty intimate atmosphere and was perfect for a 3-hour catch up for the two of us!
The sourdough, served fresh and warm, was really good. The crust was crispy enough that it doesn't hurt your lips - so good that I didn't want to stop and wipe my hands for taking a picture of the sourdough.
Here goes our all Vegetarian Fare...!

Fresh, juicy and sweet tomato lightly tossed with olive oil and topped with spiced aubergine, sour cream and soft herbs.
It's nice but as a someone who loves nuts I think this would go well with crushed pistachios too!
食材新鲜,再轻巧的一道菜都可以带来简单的满足感。
个人很喜欢果仁 - 如果蕃茄上加d开心果碎 应该都会几好味 : P

The "Wasabi-na" isn't as "spicy" as its name suggests - it balances well with the English mustard mayo and sherry vinegar, and brightens up the already refreshing beets.
上网查一查先知 "Wasabi-na" 系何方神圣 : P 带Wasabi淡淡的幽香,唔会抢味,同English mustard mayo + sherry vinegar配合平衡,令本身已很清新的红菜头更开胃!

Japanese Taiyouran eggs are pretty much unbeatable... (I guess? : P)
So good that I actually found this melt-in-your-mouth poached egg, as opposed to the black truffles, the highlight of this dish!
用上日本的Taiyouran鸡蛋... 吃一口 心里有一种想叫 「妈咪...点解鸡蛋可以咁好食~」的幸福感。
入口即溶 浓浓的 纯粹蛋黄香
好味到 我觉得black truffle唔系呢度菜嘅重点。

Perhaps it could have been roasted for a shorter time, or chopped into slightly bigger chunks?
The toasted macadamia and aromatic Argan oil made up for it though.
略嫌椰菜花有一点点烤过头了,有一点干。
不过夏威夷果仁和Argan oil很香,味道上加返分。

The pinenut cream was done just right - not overly creamy, and not overloaded with parmesan - such that I can actually taste that the gnocchi was freshly made from potato.
Delicately chewy, and aromatically elevated by the black truffles.
原来 gnocchi 可以咁好味。
Pinenut cream调得刚刚好 - 不太creamy, 不太腻,parmesan只是轻轻的点缀 - 所以 gnocchi 的薯仔味得以被带出。
口感弹牙,不像我记忆中的 gnocchi 通常是不及其他pasta类型细致。这次改变了我的观感。
当然,black truffles 亦将这道简单的美味升华。

Am only deducting one "star" from the description of this picture because I wish it came in a bigger portion.
The cheese was good, and the lavoche was lightly cheesy and nicely toasted. I probably couldn't stop eating them had I been given more cheese to go with it!
欣喜见到 Cheese course 同 Dessert都有,等我选择困难症唔洗发作 : P
好-味~ 略嫌细份咗少少。
块toasted lavoche有轻轻嘅芝士味,亦都好脆!

I'm not sure if this yoghurt ice cream is completely dairy free like frozen yoghurt, but it was silkily creamy.
Yuzu, lemon and madarin is a dream combination for someone like me - who prefers a refreshing touch of sweetness at the end, as opposed to a heavy sleeping pill which sends you right into a food coma.
An apt ending to a light and refreshing Vegetarian fare!
柚子 柠檬 柑桔
一顿细致的素食晚晚餐 以一个清新的甜品作结
真的最适合不过~ : )
自从fro-yo不及以前盛行,我已经一段时间没吃过fro-yo了。
唔太肯定呢个yoghurt ice cream系咪全素,不过真系好清新地creamy和幼滑!
<Petit four of the evening - Canele> I haven't had lots of caneles in my life but this is the best I've ever had.
Heavenly caramelised and heart-meltingly chewy... on point.
最后 最后
香甜的Canele... 烤得刚刚好

We had a lovely dining experience at Arcane and look forward to trying the other dishes next time : )
