This twist on a traditional roast dinner is scientifically proven to boost your mood
With Christmas over and the days still dark, January is traditionally a time associated with the blues. But now, Borough Market stalwart restaurant Roast has the ultimate solution for beating said blues, and it’s as easy as tucking into a Sunday roast!
The new mood-boosting roast dinner at Roast is available throughout January in a bid to beat the blues of Londoners and visitors alike. Devised by head chef Stuart Cauldwell, who has put a spin on a classic roast dinner with ingredients scientifically proven to lift your mood and boost your energy levels, this limited edition dish means you can now officially eat your way to happiness.
A comforting roast chicken, a dish synonymous with lifting spirits, and rich in B6 to aid sleep patterns, has now been boosted further and given a unique twist in the form of a serotonin-filled dark chocolate chorizo stuffing, proven to elevate your mood. Traditional vegetables associated with a roast dinner are swapped out for broccoli and beetroot, with the latter boasting the ability to soothe your nerves due to its magnesium content, and a sweet potato roasties alternative to your standard potatoes stimulates the release of serotonin as well as regulating your mood and appetite. The dish is then topped off with a rich dark chocolate and red wine gravy, which not only tastes delicious but also provides a natural source of euphoria.
Stuart Cauldwell comments “a roast dinner is a dish that’s well loved across the country and, for many, a true comfort food. At Roast, we’ve decided to go one step further this January with this roast dinner with a twist, scientifically proven to improve your mood and beat those January blues once and for all.”
Throughout January, Roast will donate £1 for every roast dinner (including the mood-boosting roast) sold in the restaurant to Crisis.
The mood-boosting roast is available from 3rd January 2018 and will be priced at £26.50.
