Chutney Mary - Lanzarote

This is a great restaurant, the food was delicious. We booked a table (although it would not of been necessary) and I told them at this point I was vegan. They were very agreeable about this, a little too much really as I’ve had this kind of reaction from places before just to get you through the door. My suspicions were completely unfounded. Our waiter, who I think was also the manager, went through the entire menus with me and pointed out all my options, there was a lot!! Then he said they would make anything to taste so could just take the meat or diary out on any dish. I now had the full menu to go at!! We ordered popadoms and sauces to start and when this was brought over it the vegan sauces were pointed out to me. For main I had vegetable curry, a side of Channa Masala and a chapati (I checked and the nann’s were not vegan). I requested the food be as mild as humanly possible as I really can’t do spicy food. We also ordered mushroom rice to share. The food was absolutely delicious, the portions were generous and I got to take what I couldn’t eat, I can’t fault a thing. The staff were great and the restaurant offered a great atmosphere. I don’t think the buffet would be a great option for vegans but that costs €9.99 and all options on the ‘vegetable menu’ were all around €7.50 so it’s a no brainier really. We paid just under €40 for popadoms and sauces, 2 mains, 2 sides, chapatis and a bottle of wine.

That is a great restaurant that was eating delicious. we have booked a table (although it was not necessary) and I told them at this point I was vegan. they were very confident about getting a little too much really as I had this kind of reaction of places before just getting them through the door. my thought was completely unfounded. our waiter, who I think was also the manager, went with me through all the menus and pointed to all my options, there was a lot! then he said they would make everything taste, so simply the meat or diary could take off on any dish. I had the full menu to go now! we ordered to start popadoms and sauces and when this was brought over them, the vegan sauces were pointed to me. for the main I had herbal curry, a side of channa masala and a chapati (I checked and the Nann’s were not vegan). I asked that eating is as mild as humanly possible, because I really cannot make spicy food. we also ordered to share mushroom rice. the food was absolutely delicious, the portions were generous and I must take what I couldn't eat, I can't owe anything. the personal was great and the restaurant offered a great atmosphere. I do not think that the buffet would be a good option for vegan, but that costs €9.99 and all the options on the "Gemüse menu" were around €7,50, so it is a no brainier really. we paid nearly 40 € for popadoms and sauces, 2 nets, 2 sides, chapatis and a bottle of wine.
