Carluccio’s gets a green makeover this month with its first ever exclusively vegetarian pop-up...

From 23 October for four consecutive Mondays (reflecting the Meat Free Monday non-for-profit campaign that encourages people to make an environmental difference and improve their health by having at least one meatfree day each week) the Cucina Verde is popping-up on the first floor of Carluccio’s flagship restaurant on Covent Garden’s Garrick Street.

Taking vegetables from humble sides to championing elements, the entire first floor of the Covent Garden restaurant has been converted into a meatless dining experience, with eye-catching displays of key ingredients reflecting the quality and provenance of the produce. The exclusively vegetarian pop-up features over 20 Italian veggie and vegan dishes from Antonio Carluccio, in collaboration with cook, food blogger and writer Anna Barnett.
