This was a unique experience as I didn't quite know what to expect. I was in the area and Veggie…read moreParadise came up as one of the non-fast food/chain alternatives and I was feeling adventurous, so... Veggie Paradise specialises in Veg take-out (call ahead), Frozen/Dried meals and ingredients. I write "Veg" 'cause it may be even Vegan, as opposed to just Vegetarian. They also do custom vegan/vegetarian cakes/pastries. This place is run by 2 sisters and their workers. As soon as Sandra heard that I wanted something to eat, she prepped me with an Asian meal - as opposed to their other meals that are more popular amongst gwai-lo. Meal comprised of a soup (looked like Tom Yum, but not sweet/spicy), a separate plate with Rice, Bok Choy (chopped with garlic), & a portion of fermented Mustard Greens with Green Peas (this was medium spicy). The meal was tasty, yet rather homey as it wasn't overly salted. I really felt like I was eating at an aunt's house! This place is located in a rather industrial, catering to Vegans/Vegetarians (or people who just enjoy the occasional veg meal), so just call ahead if you want to order something! The sisters will even offer you a sample if it's available. :)

I was impressed with Anisha the owner, her passion and vision for what she's offering. Attention to…read moresustainable containers, and healthy options. I love that its vegan and veggie driven and chicken is an afterthought instead veggies as an afterthought. In our family we have various dietary needs, so its's perfect for us. The bowls we had contained a TON of food, enough for 2 meals. Im excited to go back and try more things. The only issue was take out only, i kinda wish this was a place we could sit and eat. But I understand Anisha is trying to be an alternative to grabbing unhealthy fast food. Order ahead and pick this up for lunch or dinner. You wont regret it!

Last night my cousin (not a raw vegan) and I dined there. She enjoyed this beet juice and loved it so much that took two more juices home. I enjoyed their turmeric latte and fresh ginger/lemon teas. My cousin and I shared their falafel and cauliflower wraps and loved it. My cousin truly enjoyed their miso soup. I took a platter of all their desserts to share with my family tonight at my cousins birthday. I also took their two breads and kale chips home and am enjoying them. If you are a raw vegan you don't need any convincing. If you are not and have a lot of misconceptions about how raw vegan food looks like or tastes like I guarantee you, you will not be disappointed.

Wanted some handmade dumplings in the area and came across this place. I ordered six pork and…read morecabbage dumplings. The filling was okay, but the quantity was too small for the value. The taste was average to above average, so if you are in the area, this may be your best bet for authentic dumplings. I also got the basil chicken, which didn't taste authentic at all. It was basically an Americanized stir-fry with chicken, basil, onion, and perhaps zucchini. Taste wasn't bad, but it did not meet my expectation for a restaurant that advertised itself as authentic Chinese. I got the dumplings within 5 to 10 minutes, but the basil chicken took an extra 25 minutes of me just sitting there. It was pretty packed on a Friday evening, with one large group sitting in the middle of the restaurant.

Ok, so I rarely write reviews. I find them a bit of a waste of time, and I'm firmly against writing…read moreone if you dislike the restaurant. Hence why we're here. Well, at first I was a bit on the fence about ordering cause of the vegetarian/vegan menu, I like my meat, love meat, got to have my protein dammit! But wow! was I ever surprised and happy about following my gut and choosing to go there. You see, I'm from Vancouver, and if you know a bit about my hometown is that you know we have a very large asian population. Heck, I'd even go as far as saying it's my second language, (my first language is English and my parents are Chilean...never spoken a word of it) but I've been around it so much somehow, I feel I could get by given the chance. So, by examining the pictures from the online menu, I thought to myself; If the food is anything remotely like the pictures, it looks exactly like my fav spot in Vancouver - Congee Noodle King- also a must try if you're in east Vancouver. Just trust my absent Asian ancestry ok?! I ordered the N65. Fried Noodles with Steamed and Stir-Fried Bean Curd, and as a request asked them to make it spicy to which they happily and kindly obliged. This dish was packed with flavour. Oh em gee! Loaded with fresh crunchy veggies, the noodles were spot on: thin, velvety and a lot of them. Makes for some healthy slurps! Oh, did I mention the meat? No, I didn't, because it didn't have any, and I have never not missed something so much. The crispy fried bean curds tasted like deep fried spare ribs. My pupils dilated a bit. And that's ok cause I went into a food coma, got to heaven and wrote a review about the very first Asian restaurant I try in Toronto and I'm already planning to go back. If you give this place less than 5 stars you don't know food, Asian food or how to speak it so go on and chew on some meat! Thank you for the wonderful and friendly service as well. I shall return. How do you say that in Mandarin? Cheers! - Patricio

Yet, the drink grew on me as I was walking through the mall and was super grateful that my tummy felt good the entire time vs it being an upset stomach from coffee. They had a lot of interesting treats and food as well that I would like to try next time I'm in town. I am allergic to nuts so there are several items I would have to avoid eating, but lots of good intention, made from scratch items here.

It's amazing to see that they now have their own location at New Market with the same delicious recipes! I love all their flavours from Mint chocolate to hazelnut ($4.50-$5).

You don't have to worry about your hips, when you put these on your lips!
