maltatoday, SUNDAY, 27 NOVEMBER 2016 36 Food SOUL Food Restaurant was born in Valletta on 27 July, 2013 in the historical cobbled street of the merchants behind the Parliament. The name derives from the philos- ophy of food being food for body, mind and soul. At Soul Food's you will find reci- pes that perfectly combine cereals and seeds, herbs and spices, with good quality and fresh natural ingredients, all dishes are hand- made from scratch – buying and making food responsibly is a must at Soul Food's. The idea was born from the urge to combining the variety of Italian regional foods with a vegan and vegetarian alternative and that's what this spot has to offer: a place where food, soul and body wellness can meet. Food is prepared in an open- plan kitchen and the environment is very welcoming. The walls are painted in warm shades with a pre- dominance of green and sapphire and the furniture is original and natural. The atmosphere is inti- mate and informal and makes you feel like you're right at home. It's a heaven's corner where you can lis- ten to good music while enjoying healthy and tasty food, deep in the striking setting of other times like only Valletta can offer. A pleasant lunch in this restau- rant will help you take a break from the chaotic city. This place offers discounted prices for nearby office workers and a take away ser- vice, with the everyday alternative of regional Italian dishes originally made with ingredients imported from Italy. On Sundays you can sit outside and drink coffees, fresh smoothies, soy cappuccinos, teas and infuses and taste homemade vegan pud- dings and cakes or simply have a brunch with friends whilst sipping organic wine. Reservations are rec- ommended Sunday lunch time. Soul Food is not just a café and a restaurant – it's an evolving cultur- al spot to discover thanks to wine tasting nights and photo exhibi- tions. The room upstairs can welcome also groups for private parties or business lunches with accorded menu. Soul Food offers also dishes for celiacs and people with food intol- erances. Our body is part of nature and if we eat well our body will feel and look great too! Resto of the week WINE OF THE WEEK Food that nourishes the soul SOUL FOOD 76, MERCHANTS STREET, VALLETTA.
