Michelin-starred vegan tasting menu at Alyn Williams at the Westbury

Butter and cream are often staples in a classically French Michelin-starred kitchen. However this January, Alyn Williams at The Westbury are shunning meat, fish and animal products and will be offering guests an all vegan tasting menu alongside their usual offering.

The seven-course menu (£90pp) makes the most of the great selection of winter fruits and vegetables available, treated with as much care and attention as a piece of meat or fish. It begins with an earthy Beetroot Tartare with radish, followed by Roasted cauliflower steak and seaweed.

Next up is Hen of the Woods with a mushroom broth, then Celeriac Pasta with black truffle and Roasted Kohlrabi, hispi roll and a lemongrass velouté finishes off the savouries.

For dessert, guests will dine on Blood Orange with jam and jelly and finally the classic combination of Rhubarb and Custard with marjoram. The menu will be available from the 17th January.
