| - SO many years ago I saw this restaurant in Yorkville and was interested in trying the food. I ordered zucchini noodles as take out and at the point I wasn't impressed maybe I just wasn't into this sort of food at that point.
Fast forward may years later, my sister one day brought their raw healthy vegan no refined sugar blonde macaroon and I was hooked. So we decided to go there one day and actually try the food. We decided to go to the one in Markham Ontario.
Entering into the space its nice and bright, the tables and the decor are quite lovely. With an open kitchen in the back, tables lining each side, and a little seating area with two cozy chairs in the front window. Paintings by local artists decorate the walls, and though this location is more upscale in appearance. Upon entry, we were greeted and sat at a table. I was interested in the fireplace and the couch, thought it was quaint.
The food: the menu, the smoothie caught my eye and I decided to try the Tropical Green
Banana, mango, pineapple, spinach, kale smoothie, I was quite impressed it was big and delicious!!!
decided to try their Pad Thai
Zucchini & kelp noodles, shredded romaine lettuce, carrots & bell peppers mixed in a tangy Thai sauce topped with green onions & crumbled cashews. I was impressed it was good and not heavy, flavourful and it drew me to return and try so of their other dishes. The dish is served cold - as are all the items on the menu - which is different from the usual steaming hot, fried noodles I'm used to, but it really doesn't matter, this is great dish, it's just a lighter, fresher version.
THe next time I decided to visit I tried their he pasta bolognese ($13 - top photo), a raw vegan spin on the classic dish that may have Italian cuisine traditionalists cringing at the thought, but trust me, it's good. The same spiraled zucchini serves as the pasta, sauced with a mix of garlicky pesto and fresh tomato marinara sauce and topped with crumbled 'neat balls,' a sort of seasoned, nut-based creation that replaces the usual meat in such a recipe. The zucchini really transforms quite well into a pasta substitute, and the generous dish is definitely not lacking in flavour. The unfortunate thing is they changed their menu to a summer and have removed these two dishes, but they still have other choices if you are interested in trying new not what most people are use to menu.
