Leon launches summer menu
The chain launched its new summer menu, which features a Blueberry and Elderflower Kefir, and Smoked Salmon Salad.
"There has been a lot of research recently on how we digest, and all the findings show that our guts do so much more we have been giving them credit for. We have always known that food is linked to happiness. Science is now showing that having a healthy gut is critical to the overall health and happiness of our whole bodies.” Rebecca, Innovation Manager at LEON said.
The focus on the core sees LEON introducing a Blueberry & Elderflower Kefir, a fermented shake full of nutrients and probiotics, as well as a new Carrot, Apple & Ginger juice added with turmeric. The brand also brought back its Lamb Kofte Salad, served with a pickle-kraut relish.
Kirsty, Brand & Marketing Director at LEON, says, “We always start by thinking about what would really tickle the taste buds, and be new to the food scene. When we really focus on this and what we have set out to do as a brand, it will usually happen that the end result is good for you too.”
Leon also brought back their Chicken Tagine for the third summer running, slow cooked with preserved lemons and green olives, and introduced a brand new salad. Recently partnering up with Wester Ross – an independent high welfare salmon farm in Scotland – the brand introduced a new Hot Smoked Salmon Superfood Salad.
With last week’s launch of its latest cookbook Happy Salads, Leon will be celebrating the start of summer with a special salad deal. Buy a copy of Happy Salads in any of their stores, and get a salad and a Clean Green Shake on the house.
