Alaska zwei

One breakfast order included sweet-potato potage with focaccia, salad and a muffin. The diner enjoyed dipping the focaccia into the soup, and the salad had a simple dressing of olive oil and salt, topped with sliced nuts. Some sets let you choose focaccia or soy-milk bread. Paired with coffee or rooibos tea, they make a good breakfast or light lunch.

For a more substantial meal, the brown-rice plate comes with green salad, fried soy-meat karaage, a tofu salad with beetroot and hijiki seaweed, pickles and clear soup. The curry plate pairs potato and spinach curry with brown rice and carrot râpée. If bread is more your style, one diner singled out the crisp coating and flavour of the tofu-katsu focaccia sandwich.

Matcha parfait is one option for dessert. A diner who tried it particularly liked the combination of smooth soft serve, azuki beans and mochi. Alaska zwei is a vegan restaurant offering both dine-in and takeaway.
