Food for thought for Fazenda

BRAZILIAN-restaurant chain Fazenda is broadening its appeal, with the launch of a new vegetarian, vegan and fish menu.

Well-known for offering diner 15 different cuts of meat, Fazenda, which has restaurants in Leeds, Liverpool and most recently Manchester, says its new meat-free ranges have been launched in response to customer feedback.

Fazenda now offers mushroom and peppercorn gnocchi with truffle oil or pumpkin, spinach and blue cheese risotto for vegetarian diners, with a vegetarian sushi option also available.
 
Fish dishes such as smoked haddock and pea risotto, and lime and coriander-marinated salmon have also been added to the menu.  For vegan diners there is a choice of courgette and garlic gnocchi in a lemon sauce, or coconut and tomato gnocchi with piquillo peppers, with a gluten-free penne substitute available instead of gnocchi if desired.
 
The enhanced selection means pescetarian, vegetarian and vegan diners can now enjoy the option of a main dish specifically tailored to their diet, as well as Fazenda’s salad bar of hot and cold dishes.

Tomas Maunier, general manager at Fazenda said: “At Fazenda we aim to ensure that all guests have the best possible experience. We have always offered a vegetarian option, but we decided it was time to branch out and offer a wider selection of vegetarian, vegan and pescetarian dishes, so that non-meat eaters can still enjoy the full Fazenda experience. The response we’ve received so far has been very positive indeed.”
