Found this gem while looking for a place for lunch with friends in Barrie. I had never heard of…read moreCopper Branch before, and was surprised to learn that they are well established with many locations. I ordered the General Copper Bowl, served with shiitake mushroom General Tao, broccoli, fresh avocado, organic brown rice, sesame seeds, sriracha coleslaw, and Copper Branch General Copper sauce. It was nicely presented and most importantly, it was delicious. The flavours went well together and had nice texture variation. My spouse had the Aztec and liked it very much as well. We tried a few desserts; I would suggest skipping desserts here and focusing on their awesome bowls. The decor is lovely, and the service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended!

Walking along Wellington Plaza, I noticed a sign in a window advertising samosas. Since I hadn't…read morehad one in a while, I figured I'd go in and give them a try. I was surprised not to see the usual samosas sitting in a warming oven. When I ordered, the very nice person at the counter asked me to wait a few minutes. I assumed he was just going to grab some from the back. Five minutes later, he came out with samosas fresh from the fryer. If you've never had freshly made samosas, you have to try Honest Restaurant. The pastry was incredibly crunchy and flaky -- nothing like the ones that have been sitting in a warmer for hours -- and even the filling was hot all the way through.

Christmas in March!…read more My best friend and I were supposed to meet up before Christmas. We both got busy, especially with my being stateside for the holidays. When I returned, she was away. We were both free in mid-March to exchange Christmas gifts and catch up. She lives in Peterborough. We tend to meet partway. I suggested this Veggie Planet in Ajax. She was game. We both had never been to any Veggie Planet location. I had no problem finding a parking spot in this plaza. I backed into a spot a few doors down from this eatery. I waited for my friend to arrive. Once she did, we walked in. Being our first time, we went with a pizza. I asked an extremely helpful woman behind the counter what size would be good for us. She recommended a medium pizza. We got the following items: - Medium Indian masala pizza - Onion rings - Kawa nuggets - Masala soda (sweet with a hint of saltiness) - Diet Pepsi My friend wanted onion rings. I originally wanted to get the kawa (soy) drumsticks. The female staffer recommended the nuggets instead. Interesting. I went with her suggestion. For the masala soda, she said that I could get it either sweet or salty. I asked if I could get a bit of each. So, my drink ended up being sweet with a hint of saltiness. I paid with a credit card. The transaction was smooth. She said that she'd bring the food and drinks over. Nice! We grabbed a table and chatted. Our drinks came out first. I loved my masala soda. It was slightly sweet. It did have a bit of saltiness to it. The masala was perfect with the fizzy soda. I just wish that this drink were offered in a larger size. I ended up getting a cold Diet Pepsi an hour later. It was perfect. Our medium Indian masala pizza came next. By default, it had tomatoes, onions, and green bell peppers. My friend is vegan. We made sure that we got vegan cheese. The pizza was yummy. The cheese melted nicely. However, with this vegan cheese, you will never get a stretchy cheese pull. In hindsight, this pizza would have been even better with protein. Kawa would have worked nicely. Luckily, we had kava nuggets. They were delicious. They were crispy and yummy. You couldn't tell that they were soy. The dipping sauce was yummy. I liked the onion rings. They were so crispy. They were enjoyable to eat. We spent at least a couple of hours here. I provided feedback on how fabulous the food was and how helpful the woman was when I bought my Diet Pepsi. She smiled and seemed happy. There is a washroom that's a single stall at the back of this eatery. It's the type where you press a button to lock the door and another button to unlock it. A light outside the washroom lets the world know that it's either vacant (green) or occupied (red). My friend used it first and said that it was clean. I used it afterwards. A customer tried opening the door twice while I was using the washroom. I actually said something the second time and she stopped tugging at the door handle as if her life depending on it. When I was done, I locked eyes with the woman who was clueless about the lights. Other than weird washroom woman, we had a great time here. I still want to try the drumsticks and get the masala soda again. So good! (139)

The vegetarian choices served at The Buddhist Vegetarian Kitchen are always delicious…read more They are known for specialty Buddhist vegetarian meals and have been in the community for years. We ordered a few things and were very impressed with how well they were made. Served hot, our selections were like works of art. #16 - Bean Curd with Mixed Vegetables - plentiful amount of different types of veggies. # 5 - Stuffed Bean Curd Skin * - always delicious. # 65 - Rice Noodle w Vegetarian Chicken & Vegetable - came with generous giant pieces of mock chicken. Excellent vegetarian dishes.

Everything was on the sweeter side - too sweet for our liking. In comparison to some of the spots we have in Toronto, this was not what we expected. I can see how it would be a popular spot around here though. The food isn't bad just not to our preference. Portions on the smaller side. 10% off when you pay in cash. They don't take credit card.

A totally unexpected surprise…read more We were hankering for meatless/less heavy, and stumbled upon this charming Vietnamese restaurant. A tiny, family business who provide a quiet, serene and pleasant dining experience. NO MUSIC. BONUS! Spouse had the "bun bo Hue" and myself the "crab and fish maw". Hubby said that the taste and texture of the seitan (glutens) were on point. The "fish maw" in my crab soup had a perfect fish maw texture! We polished both off our dishes in record time and felt good about what we ate. I'm not a vegan but sometimes you just want something light and sustaining. HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. The owners/staff are nice to their customers.

I went to this restaurant with a group of six after a friend highly recommended it. When we first…read morewalked in, I immediately noticed the space was packed with way more tables and chairs than it could realistically handle. It felt a bit cramped, and with everyone turning to look at us, it was a little awkward- definitely one of those we just walked into the wrong party moments. Once we got seated, we were handed menus with numbers and asked to write down the codes for what we wanted. I wasn't super hungry, so I ordered the spicy tofu and spring rolls as appetizers, while the rest of the group ordered a variety of noodle dishes. One by one, the dishes started arriving, and I have to say, the portions were generous and everything I tasted was really flavorful. But then I kept waiting for my food, and by the time everyone else was nearly done eating, the server came over to say they had run out of crispy tofu. On top of that, we had ordered two spring rolls and only received one, even though we clearly marked "x2" on the sheet. At that point, it didn't make sense to order something else and wait another 20 minutes to eat alone, so I just ordered a spring roll and rice chicken roll to go. Overall, the noodle dishes were delicious and definitely something I'd come back for. But the restaurant could really use some improvements in organization, space management, and order accuracy.

The cafe has a pretty chill vibe with lots of games stacked to kill time. We played Jenga. As far as the food is concerned, we loved the Peri Peri fries, the Vegetarian Burger and the Spicy Noodles.

The hello dollies were far tastier than I had expected, and the chocolate covered cookie dough balls are now things that I'm going to the consider making at home. I never would have thought about it if I didn't come here first.

Some of my family favourites are their "Snickers" and "Butterfinger" bars, cheesecakes and donuts. I've also tried quite a few of their apps, which are tasty, but our experience was that anything breaded does not hold up well through the cooking process (the breading falls off). Staff here is always friendly and they have a great variety of items in a small space.
