Asa is a charming, fully vegan restaurant and cafe that opened up on Thapae Rd in November 2018. This place is absolutely lovely. We particularly love the decor. Downstairs is very homely and cosy and opens out on to the street so you can watch the world go by or just read the paper with your coffee and food. Upstairs is more of a chill out, lay-about space with floor seating, cushions and drapes. Co-working is encouraged so you can bring your laptop. Next to that is a yoga room where they will hold classes as well as other events. Please keep an eye on my events calendar where they will be advertised.
On to the food! Although the menu is not huge the dishes are incredibly good. It’s mostly Thai food that has unique twists to it. Try the popular chickpea mango curry which is at just the right level of sweetness. Asa also has summer rolls, beetroot hummus, soups, coffees with plant milks and more. All the dishes are refreshing, healthy, extremely tasty as well as creative. The summer rolls come with a delicious plum sauce.
In early 2019 more western dishes were introduced all of which are equally fabulous. Their smoothies bowls are fantastic as are the pancakes. The real winner for us is the peanut butter and jelly smoothie which is a thick and creamy overflowing glass of sheer deliciousness. It’s almost like a meal or dessert in itself.
Asa Vegan Kitchen and Studio is our new favourite and we think it might be yours too. Go try it as soon as you can, before the whole world finds out about this gem of a place.
