FOOD & DR INK
SUMMER OF LOVE The Ivy Cambridge Brasserie invites you to rediscover your love of dining this summer with a new menu of delicious dishes, afternoon tea and a bespoke, 1960s-themed cocktail menu. The selection includes the magnificent ‘This Bird Has Flown’ (Haku Japanese vodka – shaken with mint, lemon and sugar, topped with chilled prosecco), plus the ‘Woodstock Old Fashioned’, a sumptuous mixture of Maker’s Mark 46 bourbon and spiced maple syrup. There are plenty of refreshing summer dishes on offer, too, including delectable côte de boeuf, as well as pea velouté with lemon and thyme ricotta, crushed peas and black pepper. Finish it off with a decadently indulgent sundae, featuring vanilla ice cream, meringue, shortbread and strawberry sauce. “We are very excited to have welcomed guests back to the restaurant, who we have greatly missed over the past few months,” says general manager Shanil Weerakoon. “Whether you’re looking for lunch and cocktails with friends, or dinner with a loved one, there are plenty of delicious options to help you rediscover your love of dining this summer.” Reservations can be made via theivycambridgebrasserie.com
