The Spot: warm, dim lighting – flattering if youre looking haggard, inconvenient if you want to take photos. I noticed that despite being generously busy, theres a quietness about this restaurant that I loved – perfect for catching up with a friend or date.The Service: we had an array of waitstaff – most of them incredibly humble and personable with the one stray mumbler who didnt seem like the loved the food as much as the others.The Food: we (two smallish females) were recommended to go for the 5-course but in retrospect we couldve comfortably finished the 7. First of all the complimentary bread – direct portal into my heart. Gloriously crisp yet moist and chewy on the inside. I would say the overall impression was that texture and umami were heralded in our set. Lots and lots of umami, to the point where our 3rd main was a touch repetitive. However the last main was by far our favourite – artichoke and goats yoghurt, flakey, succulent, perfectly balanced. The dessert was another jaw-dropper. The licorice honeycomb was ingenious and this coming from a non-licorice fan. We were so blown away that we ordered a second dessert separately. Best. Decision. Ever.We chose Yellow because we love vegetables and wanted to know how theyve pushed the boundaries with it – we got that and more. I would say that some more variety in the set was needed – perhaps a soup/broth to add some temperature and break up the umami (someone shoot me if I say that word again), and perhaps playing more with the chilli spectrum. The standout for me is how expertly they treated their dairy, both in mains and desserts. Im definitely going to try their other restaurants.
One of the best restaurants Ive been to..completely fresh and organic place..really good spread..though somethings may not be nice to our taste..especially since we may not have tried a few ingredients! But over a fabulous experience quite a wide spread and also slightly on the expensive side! But definitely worth the experience and quality!
We started off with some bread and yummy nutty butter, along with small turnips coated in a sesame coating. The bread was warm and soft and paired beautifully with the butter. I expected the turnips to be a little bitter, but they were deliciously sweet and crunchy. The strong roasted sesame flavour was powerful and complimented the mild bitterness and watery taste of the turnips. It’s a little awkward that I am realising now that this was actually an addition to our tasting menu!Next up, and the actual start to the menu, the ‘Jersey Milk Curd + Cucumber + Spring Herbs’. The curd was delicious and soft and very mild in flavour. The cucumber portion was essentially a soup coating the curd which added a strong and fresh flavour, alongside the sharp herbs. It was a really beautiful combination of rich and creamy with the curd, fresh and slightly bitter from the cucumber and sharp with the herbs. Definitely a beautiful summery start to our dinner.The ‘Butternut Pumpkin + Miso Butter + Saltbush’ was probably the most stand-out item for us on the menu. We even asked how in the world they made it, because we were making all the yummy noises. I even overheard the table next to us comment that they wanted whatever the hell we were having because of how much we clearly enjoyed it. The pumpkin was soft, and just packed with buttery miso flavour. There was delicious crispy curry leaves served over the pumpkin, a beautiful smooth hollandaise made with more pumpkin, and a Japanese style tomato spice powder. Trust me you want this – regardless of which menu you opt for :PNext came the ‘Forbidden Rice + Aromatic Sauce + Smoked Yogurt’ which came alongside some char-grilled cabbage. Unfortunately this was the only let down in terms of the menu. We found the flavours a little overpowering. The smoked yogurt was delicious, however it was that smokiness that really took over the already smokey flavour of the rice. I felt like some freshness to cut the flavours would have worked wonders. Okay finally let’s talk about dessert – which I really loved. This was the ‘Mandarin + Coconut + Toasted Almond’, which was a beautiful combination of gelato, fruit, the coconut and almond. There was smooth textures, crunchy, sour flavour, sweetness and amazing nuttiness. There were little icy bits and little warm bits – honestly I cannot explain it. There was a lot happening, yet all the tastes were so subtle. I definitely recommend this dessert if you are a fan of citrus fruits!Let me circle back to the small portions – the portions are actually substantial! We struggled to finish off everything, and we really needed to get up and walk around for the food to settle down. Skip your lunch for the 5 course menu, and just don’t eat for the whole day for the 7 course in my opinion. Let’s rate this marvellous placeService: 10/10The waitstaff is exceptionally friendly, and made jokes while we dined also. Nothing inappropriate ofc, just fun banter. I appreciated how quickly our food came to us, and the small explanations of everything we were eating was so appreciated. Ambiance: 10/10The motifs were warm, and I really loved the exposed brick walls. The dim romantic lighting honestly makes it a perfect intimate dinner spot :)Menu: 8/10I think there are a lot of non-traditional combinations on the menu, which can make it a little difficult for some customers. It’s still a beautifully arranged selection however.Value for Money: 9/10We left the restaurant feeling exceptionally full. The 5 course tasting menu, at $75 was tough to finish up!The Food: 9/10One point off for the one item we didnt enjoy, and it’s only one point because the rest was honestly so phenomenal.Overall: 9.2/10 Seriously, get yourself here for amazing vegetarian food. theminiaturelife.com
Definitely an unique dining experience for me. Hardly ever any vegan degustation restaurants so this really stood out for me. We got the five course meal and everything was presented nicely. The service was great and the waiter was always attentive.
Fantastic meal, great service, really good value for the 5 course degustation with reasonably priced wine to go with. Phenomenal flavours youd never think work but they do! Loved the eggplant and goats curd / beetroot tart.
Yellow is simply delicious from one dish to another. Their degustation is well spaced but more importantly yum from start to finish. Vegetarians and carnivores alike will find happiness in this food.
Just popped in for coffee and dessert. Amazing flavour. Different to anything I’d had before. Didn’t book but staff found a table for us.Staff was friendly and helped a lot. Food was fantastic and view was fabulous.Would definitely recommend.
