About Time: You Discovered the Hottest New CollaborationsBy Alicia Grimshaw
We know we can’t dine out right now, but that hasn’t stopped restaurants and food brands from being as innovative as ever. From a new plant-powered bite to a must-try brunch dish – here’s the best collaborations we’re loving at the moment:
1. For a New Brunch Dish: Eggbreak x Bubala
The Lowdown: West Londoner’s rejoice! Eggbreak, Notting Hill’s neighbourhood spot serving eggs all day, all ways, has joined forces with Spitalfields mega Middle Eastern veggie restaurant, Bubala to bring you The Bubala Bun. Think a hearty slab of Bubala’s famous halloumi nestled within a fluffy brioche bun, topped with an egg souffle and finished with rose harissa, and smoked tomato and date butter. The Eggbreak x Bubala collab marks the first time Bubala has been available to the West London crowd for hot delivery, so get on it stat.

2. For a Vegan Special: Sutton and Sons x Moving Mountains
The Lowdown: Moving Mountains has partnered with London’s renowned family-owned fish restaurant Sutton and Sons to launch the ultimate plant-based Moving Mountains Fish Finger sandwich on its vegan menu. This plant-based Fish Finger sandwich is the ultimate in comfort food, and features four succulent Moving Mountains plant-based Fish Fingers, which are flaky in texture and coated in crunchy golden breadcrumbs, served in freshly-baked, thick-sliced artisan bread, with Sutton and Sons’ signature vegan tartare sauce and sliced lettuce.
To celebrate, Sutton and Sons are giving away 100 free takeaway sandwiches at its three restaurants on Saturday 27th February from 6pm.
