Food What's For Dinner Tonight?

The wife is going to make homemade fried chicken. I probably haven't had that in a year or better. *yum*

 

This was last night, but: Thai food!

Spring rolls, salad rolls, mango salad, tofu satay, and eggplant in black bean sauce with steamed vermicelli.

 

Inarizushi.

Amy's cheeseless pizza with Daiya

I love those things!

 

They are stupid easy to make. You should try it sometime, if you haven't. I used frozen aburaage that I got at an Asian market here in town. You just boil them a bit to deoil them, blot them dry, and then put them in some sauce.

Tonight we went here for dinner: http://nativefoods.com/

I had the Carribean Queen burger--it's actually made with seitan, and it's delicious. Baraka_Guru, if you are ever faced with a chance to eat at Native Foods, DO IT--everything is vegan.

 

It looks like it's American only, but it looks good.

There are several vegan-only restaurants here in Toronto, only a handful of which I've been to. I should make a point of doing a circuit. Here's one I've been to (albeit over 10 years ago) that's fairly popular: http://www.fressenrestaurant.com/fressen/index.php

I've been meaning to go back. When I was there, they did an awesome gluten steak.

Actually, I've been to their sister restaurant a few times: Urban Herbivore. But that's more of a soup and sandwich shop. Very, very good though.

There's a Jamaican vegan place called One Love that I've been meaning to check out. I've had their legendary corn soup a couple of times at a vegetarian event. Very delicious.

Also, I'm going to Rancho Relaxo with arkana on Wednesday. It's not vegan-only, but you can veganize everything on the menu: they change it to soy sour cream and cheese, steak, chicken, whatever. I love it there.

 

This was the first place I've been to that's part of a chain, and I was impressed.

 

Spaghetti

 

Brazilian black bean soup

 

What makes it Brazilian?

 

Orange juice.

 

I was figuring she waxed all the hairs away from the bean.

 

Kyochon Chicken. Korean Fried Chicken. Holy shit that stuff was good.
