Bespoke Kitchen
This light-filled space is a great option, especially on the way to or from a trip up the gondola. Bespoke Kitchen's fresh and buzzy vibe is reflected in its menu, which is full of healthy options, raw baking and vegan treats. A big hit is the breakfast board, comprising a chia pudding (chia seeds in coconut milk and homemade berry jam) and smashed avocado and eggs served on toast and sprinkled with chilli and lime salt. The accompanying daily greens shot (made from spinach, kale, and spirulina) will invoke a virtuous feeling for the rest of the day. 9 Isle Street.
