Kind Food Restaurant Review

It was a rainy day on Saturday and usually Brad and I would stay home and watch movies, but we decided instead to take a drive and try out a vegan bakery and cafe called Kind Food. Kind Food is located in Burlington, Ontario which is a little over an hour away from where we live. Unfortunately there are no vegan places that aren’t at least an hour away, so we’re used to driving

We had already gone to Kind Food’s website and checked out the menu, so we knew what we were going to have even before we got there. I got the B.L.A.T. Sandwich, which had vegan bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, carrot and vegenaise and was served on this amazing multi grain bread (it was so good I bought a loaf to take home). It was delicious as was Brad’s Kind Burger, a grilled tempeh burger with melted Daiya. Both were so good, I am going to attempt to make my own versions at home.

Since Kind Food is also a gluten-free vegan bakery, we couldn’t leave without sampling some sweet stuff. We got a Dulce de Dulce cupcake, Mile High Brownie, and a chocolate covered donut to go. We also shared a cookie sandwich, pictured below, but I’m not sure what it was called. It was really good, but very sweet so I only  had a couple of bites and Brad devoured the rest. He has more of a sweet tooth than I do The other baked goods that we got to go were equally as tasty. We weren’t so nuts about the donut, but the cupcake and brownie were heavenly.

The cafe itself is pretty small with limited seating, and it was a little confusing to know wether we should go up and order or if someone would come around and take our order. We figured it out and the staff were super helpful and knowledgable about all the delicious choices. The food isn’t cheap, but well worth it, and as the sign below the menu says “Good food ain’t cheap….and cheap food ain’t good.”

Fresh Vegan Restaurant Review

Marta and Brock grab a late lunch at Fresh, a vegan/vegetarian restaurant on Spadina in Toronto. Then they check out the Blue Jays game afterwards.

Commensal Vegetarian Restaurant Review

Commensal vegetarian restaurant is a cafeteria style, buffet restaurant. Although walking around with a plastic tray and lining up for my food reminds me of being in high school, one of the great things about it being a buffet is you get try lots of different things. They have hot and cold selections, many of which are vegan and all items are clearly labeled to indicate vegan, lacto, ovo, or lacto ovo vegetarian. The food is always excellent and it’s a great place to go when you just want something quick and easy.

If you’ve been to Commensal before, as always I’d love to know what you think about it:)

Sadie’s Diner Restaurant Review

I recently discovered this great little vegetarian/vegan diner in downtown Toronto. We went there for breakfast last weekend and the food was great. There are many vegan options on the menu and a lot of the vegetarian items can also be made vegan. It has a very casual, diner style atmosphere. They are open 7 days a week and have all day breakfast. They also do lunch and dinner items. I couldn’t find a website for them, so here is the link to their myspace page which has their menu, location and hours. http://www.myspace.com/sadiesdiner
