| - If I ever become vegan, this is the place I'm giving credit to for helping make it a reality. This joint specializes in vegan pizza, and my first sample was of "The Fat Mac." It's a vegan interpretation of Mc Donald's Big Mac and has "ground not beef, shredded dill pickle, sweet vidalia onion, plant-based cheddar cheese, diced iceberg lettuce, sesame seed crust, and vegan fat mac sauce." Overall, a really great substitute as the plant-based cheese has a gooey texture and the fat mac sauce is a near perfect copy. The non beef has an almost rubbery/squeaky texture but you really don't miss the real thing as everything else is full of flavor. Also had the (I believe this is the one in the pic) BBQ Buffalover which has "BBQ sauce, buffalo soy curls, red onion, plant-based mozzarella cheese, plate-based japaleno cheese, ranch dressing." The soy curls tasted like chicken cause, let's face it, everything tastes like chicken. The sweet and smoky BBQ sauce brought out the sweetness in the onions and the creaminess of the cheese doesn't make you miss the cow version. This place is conveniently located directly across Christie subway station and the park for some outside seating. Or stay inside during colder months. There's very limited seating on the first floor but seems like you can take your food upstairs to the sister bar. By the way, really friendly chill people. Can't wait to come back!
