| - As a vegetarian any place that caters to me is worth a look! And a repeated one at that. I find this place pricey but tasty. Its a great lunch option and I've had most of the dishes on the menu. I can only comment on the RIchmond St location so can't comment on their sushi which is only offered at the Eglinton location.
My favourites are the Mexican wrap (easy on the onions!), the savoury crisp (mostly for the coated fries that come with and that sauce for the meat substitute (I know...mmmm, meat substitute but it actually is really tasty!), the bbq and spring rolls noodle, and when I have someone to share it with, the sweet and sour fireballs with say a shish-kabob reminds me of the good old chinese food red sauce that I've missed since going veggie.
Disappointing dishes are the veggie burger, pad thai and club sandwich - how strange that a vegan place has a lacklustre veggie burger and pad thai. I do enjoy the soups, the wanton and the thai spicy soup with spring rolls (although the sauce is bland), it makes a nice lunch.
The decor is strange - very white and clinical with all sorts of vegan propaganda all over - including 2 (or 3?!) HUGE flatscreens showing more vegan propaganda - staring into the eye of the supreme master has its charms but is a bit heavy handed. If I'm there, I'm probably already food conscious, I don't need to see the cow death count across the world.
All in all, i go here frequently - the dishes I like, I really like and crave. Any place that can give me 3-4 tasty lunch options is A-OK with me.
