PREVIEW: CARVE, London Bridge

Today I bring you a super exciting preview of Carve. Redefining the much-loved British carvery, Carve puts a unique spin on the Sunday lunch, offering a high protein, high impact breakfast, lunch or dinner that delivers on taste and speed. Introducing: the Carvepot.

From breakfast through to dinner, impeccably sourced premium cuts of meat, fish and tofu slabs are hand-carved, pulled and prepped by experts then served with superfoods, spices, relishes and roots.  Obviously the tofu and fish options are my focus, but the meats look pretty awesome and were loved by my fellow bloggers.

Each pot boasts a meat, fish or tofu portion matched to slow-releasing carbs and veggie goodness. Creative meaty combinations include smoked pork leg with apple slaw, crème Fraiche, piquillo peppers and pineapple ketchup; roasted tofu with sesame seed crust, tamari, ginger and turmeric root; or salmon gravadlax with leeks, fennel, radish, chopped egg, dill and mustard.

If you're hitting the gym before work then treat yourself to a CARVE breakfast pot. We all love a dirty fry up and CARVE put's its own healthy spin on this with Cumberland sausage meatloaf with ground Landroc pork, nutmeg, sage and a whole loin of dry cured bacon with a Seville orange marmalade glaze, served with sides such as bubble and squeak and rumbled free range eggs. There's also a fishcake option for those not eating meat but sadly no fully vegetarian option at this stage. Don't miss out on the eggs; they are literally the most epic thing ever. Regular readers will know that I went off eating eggs a little while ago but honestly these eggs are on another level. 
What's the most exciting thing about CARVE, however, is the ordering system. I know, I'm sad as hell loving an ordering system, but it's quite clever. Now: think Argos and how you bang a code or search for a product into a screen, select it then pay. The system is the same at CARVE. Once you've got your ticket simply follow the arrow floor markings, to the iconic CARVE counter. One pot, one price. One drink, one price. No matter what you choose when you actually arrive at the counter the price remains the same. Awesome right? So there's no more wasting precious lunch minutes in an endless queue.
