Warming Winter Specials at Slow Boat
Fight off the winter chill with Slow Boat’s new creamy and chunky pumpkin shiitake soup (pictured at top). This creamy, vegan pumpkin soup is made with herb-sautéed shiitake mushrooms, topped with nigella seeds, and served with two slices of olive oil grilled baguette. The soup is available daily for RMB 35. Sounds like this will go well with their new hot drinks happy hour deal, featuring spiced mulled wine and hot buttered rum, both of which are RMB 10 off from 4-8pm Monday-Friday.
