IMAGES Dine on some tasty international dishes, such as the bucket biryani served with aubergine raita, guinea fowl and truffle naan from The Tiffin Truck. Or why not try some vegetarian tostones with guacamole and sour cream from La Latina Bustaurante?
DE LUCA A reliably delicious choice for a meal out, De Luca is one of the longest- running restaurants in Cambridge. The secret to its enduring success is
its indulgent, classic Italian food, but the upstairs piano and cocktail bar definitely helps keeps the punters coming back, too. This Christmas, the restaurant is once again adding a seasonal spin to its menu, offering dishes like baked turkey breast stuffed with sausage meat and dates, plus panettone with pistachio and white chocolate creme for pud. It’s priced at £25 for two courses at lunch, or £32 for three courses at dinner – add a glass of prosecco for an additional £4, and don’t forget to mosey up to the top floor bar for a digestif.
TABANCO Fans of Spanish food should get this excellent Green Street eatery on their radar, pronto. It opened its doors in the spring of last year, under the same
ownership as both Cambridge burger restaurant Butch Annie’s and the acclaimed Drakes Tabanco in London’s Fitzrovia, and has been quietly building up an army of loyal fans. Stop in for a chilled glass of fino and avail yourself of the excellent tapas menu, which includes chorizo swaddled in rich red wine and honey sauce, fluffy, crunchy patatas bravas with creamy aioli, authentic Spanish tortilla and iberico pork cheeks with buttery mash and crispy shallots. Is your mouth watering yet?
