  • HOLEY HAY VANCOUVER HAS AWESOME VEGAN FOOD!
    Hi friends and not-yet-friends! Vancouver, BC is one of the most vegan-friendly cities and some of the best restaurants. I couldn't share them all with you but I picked out a few of my favourite vegan and vegan-friendly eateries for this video. Including:
    - Chickpea for vegan breakfast with Middle Eastern influence on Main St.,
    - Catfe for dose of caffeine and cute cats,
    - Virtuous Pie at UBC for vegan pizza and ice cream, and
    - Do Chay for vegan Vietnamese cuisine in East Van.
    What are you favourite vegan and vegan friendly spots in Vancouver? Maybe I'll go there next time!

    Love how you were also candid about what you didn't particularly like! I would love to see you recreate the eggplant dish as well as those coconut cakes, both of which practically made me drool over my keyboard in a most unladylike fashion!!

  • @garya3056
    @garya3056 Před 4 lety

    So glad to hear/see from you, Mary! This was really great and loved your reviews. The pho looked really awesome as did the pizzas and the eggplant. Pistachios! Yum! 👍

    @reachtrita Před 4 lety +9

    The eggplant dish looks so good! I love the melt in your mouth eggplant, it I cannot seem to make it at home :/
    The coconut cakes is a Thai street snack. It’s called Kanom Krok ( ขนมครก ) You could make it at home if you have a takoyaki maker/pan! It’s made of canned coconut milk with flour and sugar/salt. You could top it with different things like green onions (classic), corn, pumpkin, etc

    • @marystestkitchen
      @marystestkitchen  Před 4 lety +3

      It was awesome!! A different dish altogether but have you tried my spicy deep-fried eggplant recipe? It's that' melt in your mouth eggplant but crispy on the outside :-)
      And OMG I should have known!! I saw the coconut rice cakes recipe on Hot Thai Kitchen here on CZcams before. Now I know where to go to learn. Thanks for that tip!!

    • @marystestkitchen

      Ya! Another reader said they look like Kanom Krok. But they are Banh Khat (Vietnamese). From what I can tell, they are very similar but batter is a bit different.

    I SO agree with you on that almond milk remark. I used to use it in dishes and started to notice this weird, underlying flavor in some of the food I made and it took me ages of trial and error to realize that it was that that was causing it! Never again hahaha

    Isn't it strange that I live in Sweden yet I love to see what you ate in Vancouver? xD I am so jealous of all the vegan resturants in Canada and the US! I have never been to a vegan restaurant in my liiiife. Although some places are starting to have vegan menues now which is amazing! And the beyond burger just arrived so there is much hope..
