WINTER D INING GU I DE
THE TIFFIN TRUCK The sibling restaurant of fine-dining spot Navadhanya, The Tiffin Truck on Regent Street takes a more relaxed approach, offering Indian street food
and craft beers. The tapas-style menu means you can try lots of dishes in one sitting, from classics like masala dosa to lesser-known gems such as sambar vada, a lentil doughnut in a hearty stew. For something a little different, you can also enjoy TT’s twist on an afternoon tea, and there’s a range of Indian spiced cocktails on offer, too – ours is a chai martini.
LA LATINA BUSTAURANTE On a grey, wintery day, bring a little Latin sunshine to your life with a trip to Cambridge’s first and only restaurant on a bus. You’ll find La
Latina Bustaurante parked up at Cambridge Retail Park, providing a burst of colour and a breath of fresh air. Hop aboard this beautifully refurbished double-decker bus and take a seat for your feast, which should include the full trio of La Latina’s specials: tostones, empanadas and arepas. The perfect antidote to dry turkey and sprouts.
DON PASQUALE This family run restaurant in the heart of the market square is offering an Italian festive feasting menu from late November until 23 December. As
is traditional on Italian Christmas day, you can begin with an antipasti board laden with cured meats and cheeses, or go for the hearty option: a steaming bowl of minestrone with meatballs. Main courses, meanwhile, include a fragrant lamb shank with rosemary on garlic mash, or a turkey escalope in a cream of porcini mushrooms, white wine and sage. The decadence continues on the dessert list, which features panettone bread and butter pudding, and chocolate and dark rum-soaked raisin mousse topped with crushed amaretto biscuits. It’s priced at £29.90 for three courses at dinner time, or £25.90 for lunch.
