WATCH OUT for spooky specials of devilish desserts and creepy cocktails at three of London’s top restaurants this Halloween’s Wicked Weekend.
Zuaya’s, Day of the Dead brings back to life the energy and flavours of Latin America with a Mexican Ghost Punch. A concoction of Mezcal Reposado and Rum Añejo gives it a smoky, rich depth and a cinnamon kick. The best Peruvian techniques are used to infuse milk with spices and lime zest to create an intense rich Delica Pumpkin Rice Rippling Pudding you’ll want to devour.
A cloud has descended upon the Italian Rivera at Como Garden to enjoy its signature Halloween cocktail, the Italian Dracula. Dark rum molasses with a touch of nutmeg and cinnamon is served suitably in a blood orange infused pumpkin. Como Garden’s Crispy Cream Curdling Profiteroles are filled with drool-worthy Sicilian green pistachio cream spilling out of the choux pastry.
Redeem your Spanish soul at El Norte and enjoy a Bloody Iberia, a cinnamon infused Gin Mare together with fresh Valencian citrus juice and triple sec liqueur bubbling out of punctured orange serve. To feed your sweet palate, El Norte has taken a traditional 10th century recipe for Bueñuelos de Viento and turned it on its head. Stuffing until they burst with a rich cream of Delica pumpkin and cardamom then coated with raspberry sugar.
The terrifyingly terrific staff are dressed to impress, ready and waiting so step inside….
