| - This is my second time to Rawlicious and the first time on this branch. Being a card carrying meatatarian places like this are rare feat for me. I only have on single vegan friend.
Though I won't be sold on the vegan band wagon since I love my meats as well. This place is the bees knees for making veggies taste good.
This place is not like those Chinese vegetarians where you get non-meat products that tastes like meat or other vegetarian restaurant that put spices to infinitum which is just an exercise of masking the flavours.
Warning: do not come here hungry. Your wallet would regret it. However, if you
The food in this place brings out the natural flavour of the ingredients which alone would be blah. However when you combine it together, the ingredients dance around your taste buds giving a much more fulfilling experience.
The staff here is more attentive than the Newmarket location. So that's a welcome bonus. They were considerate enough to even split our drink into two cups so we can share a relatively pricy compared to other places cherry berry shake.
One other nice thing about this place is they have their recipe book on display which they allowed us to read. It was quite fun to look at how they make their stuff while savouring it.
Perusing through it on the work that is needed to make their food and then comparing it to the prices you are paying, I find that it is well worth it. It is a lot of effort and prep work to get their base ingredients which have a limited shelf life.
So what did we have today.
Cherry berry shake. A mix of cherries, bananas, avocado, goji berry, maple syrup, vanilla and almond extract in an almond milk base. Their shakes feel satisfying you need to have one in order to feel full in the end along with their main entree...
In which case we had the Pad Thai and Quessadillas. For those, do not expect more than the relative shape to match the name. They taste unique. You know they're veggies and there isn't a hint of meat in the flavor at all. The portion of each entree is good only for one person so it's good we ordered two entrees.
We also had the watermelon salad. Unfortunately that was a major miss for us. The arugula was just way too strong that the rest of the watermelon couldn't counteract it. However, I am not factoring it n this review, because the first time I went we had the Nori maki which was a very tasty appetizer.
Shortly after eating the food here, I do feel a bit cleansed.
Also considering I ate the food 3 hours ago, at the end I didn't feel *full*, but I am not hungry at this time.
Also since this location is a bit closer to home and has ample free parking nearby I think this is my go-to branch of Rawlicious as well.
