Chotto Matte, London’s renowned Japanese & Peruvian Nikkei dining destination from restaurateur Kurt Zdesar, announces the launch of its Jungle Brunch complete with free-flowing cocktails.
From 12th October, and housed in their famed Soho restaurant in the recently refurbished Lava Lounge, the Jungle Brunch will be available every Saturday (and also on Bank Holiday Sundays). The menu, priced at £49pp for food only and £79pp for food and drinks, showcases the fusion of the vibrant spirit of Tokyo and the tastes of Lima.
Guests also have the chance to add additional bottomless cocktails and prosecco to their brunch. Chotto Matte’s cocktails are inspired by the fusion of Japanese and Peruvian flavour profiles and include Forbidden Fruit, a combination of vodka, apple, lychee liqueur, lemon, shiso syrup and our favourite, the Frozen Watermelon Margarita with Cimarron Tequila, watermelon, lime, agave, topped with an edible flower.
The menu features a range of plates including these delicious crispy and tender Nobashi Ebi Tempura - prawn tempura, red onion, coriander and ama su ponzu and Nikkei Gyoza - pork & prawn dumplings, yuzu sweet potato purée, red pepper ponzu.
The Jungle brunch is served in the seriously cool and newly-refurbished Lava Lounge which has been decorated to include elements of the jungle environment that inspired the Brunch, in glowing green and purple tones.
With a resident DJ playing during the Jungle Brunch, Chotto Matte Soho is the perfect location for those wanting a party vibe alongside a boozy, cool and indulgent brunch.
