LIMA owners set to launch fast casual dining concept
Sabroso aims to offer affordable ‘Latin Soul Food’.
The duo behind LIMA is set to launch their first fast casual concept.
Launching on 21 October at Westfield White City in London, Sabroso says it will offer high-quality yet affordable ‘Latin Soul Food’ that draws inspiration from restaurateurs Gabriel and Jose-Luis Gonzalez’s home country of Venezuela.
The restaurant’s signature dish will be the arepa – a round cornbread stuffed with a variety of fillings. Guests can add toppings such as Venezuelan black beans, ripe plantains, roasted peppers, crème fraiche or avocado plus a range of sauces and garnishes. Mini arepa are also available for children.
Sabroso will also feature build-your-own ceviche bowls, its take on the poké bowl. These bowls will feature cured salmon, tuna or aubergine combined with fresh homemade toppings. Guests will be able to choose between a rice or quinoa base, before selecting from a wide range of fillings and garnishes.
Sabroso’s upcoming launch follows the duo’s launch of Peruvian restaurant LIMA London in Fitzrovia in 2012 and Floral by LIMA in 2014.
