Pass the S SALT Award-winning restaurant introduces kids’ menu
ALT is modern and refined – the perfect place for a date. And yet, many families also visit this contemporary Lido restaurant for its friendly service, weekend brunch, spacious patio, and proximity to Si’de Park. SALT specializes in two- to three-course set menus for lunch, brunch, and dinner with vegetarian, low-fat, and glutenfree options. Recently, the restaurant introduced a “Little Matey Menu” (RMB 98 for two courses) with pirate-themed dishes like Hidden Treasure Risotto, Little Matey Chicken, and Creamy Pirate Pasta. For dessert, kids can choose from chocolate ice cream, chocolate lava cake, or doughnut churros (the latter two cost an additional RMB 10). For brunch, grownups can pick from options like pork terrine, grilled tiger prawn summer salad, shredded cod, beef tenderloin, and chocolate fondant (RMB 198-428 depending on number of courses and alcoholic drinks). So go ahead – reach for the SALT. Sijia Chen
