D&D London have just announced that their new Alpine-inspired venue comprising a casual all-day dining café, first floor restaurant, grab and go deli, and a rooftop bar overlooking the Olympic Park, Haugen, will open on Wednesday 15th September.
Bringing a sense of Alpine heartiness and generosity to the all-day dining experience in the ground floor café, highlights from the menu include sharing plates of Mountain Fondue served with sourdough, new potatoes & pickles and Tartiflette with reblochon, bacon and potato. Haugen promises to be a must go restaurant for cheese-lovers! Elsewhere on the menu, guests will be able to tuck into Raclette, Vienna Schnitzel with warm potato salad & lingonberries, Chickpea and Lentil Burger in a Brezel bun or Haugen’s Caesar Salad with white anchovies. To finish, desserts will include Haugen’s signature Chocolate Fondue, with marshmallow, fresh strawberries, and honeycomb for dipping, alongside Apple Strudel, Sacher Torte and a decadent ‘Schwarzwälder’ cherry vinegar sorbet with Kirsch cream & chocolate mousse, topped with chocolate crunch, cherry gel and an almond cinnamon tuile.
The cafe boasts chalet chic interiors and a 150 cover terrace replete with faux fur throws and heaters. Upstairs the rooftop bar is inspired by the après ski atmosphere of bars in the Alps, with bespoke cocktails, glühwein, Schnapps, craft beers and light bites.
