Authentic Cuisine

The innovative menu on offer at Zen provides a wide range of new and exciting Japanese style dishes, where the experimentation with new ingredients and methods of preparation have allowed Zen to set the pace in food design. Zen also caters for those with more reserved traditional tastes, offering a plethora of ‘Fusion cuisine’ consisting of Japanese and Asian cuisine with a Western fusion.

A diverse drinks list compliments the menu and also offers a significant range of alcoholic and non-alcholic beverages. Beers, fine wines and cocktails of various origins are available from the bar which caters for all tastes and moods.
