Then we got the kale pesto noodles, the nachos with beans and because we really wanted to try the Banana bread and bacon! Wow - I am not a vegetarian nor a vegan but i like trying new things!

Vegan Thai in Darlinghurst…read more Kindness has the most fantastic corn fritters you will ever eat in your life. Perfectly spherical. Bursting with fresh corn flavor. After the fritters, things go downhill fast. They offer two kinds of tofu, regular and something called seaweed tofu. For the love of god, avoid anything with their seaweed tofu in any shape form or saucing. We had two different dishes with seaweed tofu in them, and hated both of them. Vegetables are fresh, al dente and not all that tasty. Kindness makes the dullest fried bananas and sweet rice on the planet. Fried bananas and Thai sweet rice are two of the easiest desserts you can possibly make. Bananas and sweet rice are as reliable as sesame balls. Except here. I suspect if you worked your way systematically through the menu, you would find a few more items as good as the corn fritters. So you can make this work if you really want to. But there is so much good Thai eating in Sydney ...

Not only do people need to put their hands over the cutlery to reach handles, but any sick people are talking over it. It also wasn't clean. Not just a bit, but with giant food smears. Multiple people had to thumb through the eating part of the cutlery to try to find a "clean" piece of cutlery. This grossed me out so much I'm never eating there again. I was also astounded that the very pleasant staff didn't notice or take action on this, even though a number of them were standing right there watching. If it were me working there I'd be so embarrassed, and immediately rewash them. A number of options here are good value, but smears are just not on. BYO chopsticks, yo.

This is an alright restaurant. They have some good vegan food but it is a bit too much for me…read morepersonally. It tastes good but I always leave feeling a bit bloated, I would prefer they be a bit healthier. The nachos is really good and last time I visited they were playing some BTS on the speakers and any restaurant playing BTS is good in my books. The pub downstairs is sometimes a bit too noisy for my liking, especially when they have a musician performing. The floor shakes from bass and it makes me anxious. It's not awful for my closest vegetarian option but I would probably choose a different one of Sydney's vegetarian restaurants if I had the choice. The service is very passable it's nothing amazing but there's nothing to complain about. Thankyou for listening I hope this gave you some idea of what the restuaraunt is like.

This is hands-down my favourite place for lunch in Sydney. I seriously get excited about working in…read moreour Sydney office purely because it's directly across from the MLC Centre so I can stuff myself silly with Iku food throughout the work day. Iku Wholefood is a chain of 12 stores scattered throughout Sydney offering healthy but delicious vegan food. It's popular across the board, not just with the vegan crowd, which is a testament to how delicious it is. Iku has a wide variety of food options crammed into a tiny food-court space. Their display counter includes a dizzying array of sweet treats like cookies, pastries, and muffins, as well as savoury snacks like nori rolls, polenta and couscous slices, rice balls, millet balls, etc. And that's just their display counter. Their full menu itself includes pies, salad plates with a variety of mix-and-match options, lasagne, casseroles, curries, and soups. By far my favorite thing on the menu is the macroburger. It's described as "a tofu fritter served on a steamed wholemeal bun spread with tahini sauce, topped with leafy green salad and Iku salad dressing." I don't normally like tofu but this is crazy delicious and unrecognisable as anything tofu-y. I seriously fantasise about biting into a delicious Iku macroburger while I'm on the flight over to Sydney because I'm filled with giddy expectation and I know it'll be the first thing I eat when I land. You can also get the mildly healthier macrobiotic wrap, which contains the same ingredients as the macroburger, just in wrap form and with slightly more greens. Note that both of these are a bit messy to eat, so probably not best to take into a lunch meeting with important executives. That and you'll rudely inhale it because it's so delicious. I also enjoy the Iku pies (filled with beans, chickpeas, lentils, veggies, etc.), sweet treats (I've had their muffins and a couple of cookies -- delicious), and nori rolls (the sauce is amazing). Everything tastes so fresh and innovative. The only thing that didn't wow me was the lasagne. I felt it was a bit bland. I haven't tried any of the casseroles, curries, or soups yet. They also do breakfast, which I haven't tried either. This Iku is located in the MLC Centre, which is the funny round UFO-shaped building on the south side of Martin Place -- you can't miss it. Just walk into the food court and Iku is near the entrance on your right. Because this is a food court in the middle of the CBD, seating is scarce between 12pm and 2pm. If you want to find a seat, go early for lunch (around 11am -- the benefit there is you can ogle all the gorgeous young tradies eating their lunches -- oh sorry off-topic), or go after 2pm. Or just get take-out and bring it back to your desk. There are 11 other locations around the CBD and nearly all of them get amazing reviews, so definitely check this chain out :) I wish they had them in Melbourne!!

Taken at face value, these guys fill a gap in the market for people eating RAW, sugar free or who…read moreare vegan, vegetarian or want to eat organic. Each menu item is labelled with dietary requirements making it super easy to make your choices without guessing. The servings are substantial and delicious, the vegetables are crisp, fresh and cooked with love. Everything about this place is earthy and organic which means it comes with the usual 'hipster tax'. There's a small market style store at the back if you get swept away and feel inspired to start making your own hipster food - make sure you have a spare child to sell or you are prepared to remortgage your house if you want to purchase anything. On the downside, the staff meet the minimum requirement. Getting menus, water and ordering is self-serve but the staff will dump/throw your order in front of you at your table. Each time we've eaten here and our order is thrown in front of us, parts of it will fall on to the table - this is now a running joke. Today when we ate here, I thought I was going to be bitten by the cook when our order came through to the kitchen dead on kitchen closing time. If these guys could get their act together on the service front, they'd no doubt be our favourite lunch spot and earn 5 star reviews.

Pure Wholefoods in Manly claims to meticulously select their predominantly vegetarian menu which…read morecannot be doubted for a moment. Walter and his wife Dini are an affectionate favourite among the locals and on occasions can be perceived as moody however I witness them both address each patron by first name and feel a little envious but for only a moment as Walter brings my perfectly made fair trade skim mocha my breakfast special of Eggs Florentine with Soy Pesto cream sauce and steamed English spinach. The kitchen is open from 7:30am- 3:30pm and the shop is open until 5:30pm. You can call ahead to have food prepared to pick up. Portions can vary in size however the food itself is unparalleled in quality and because of this - prices are premium also. Today talk in this vegetarian cafe is thick of the pending rugby league grand final and what the weather for the local Manly Jazz carnival will do. The founder of the jazz carnival was my music teacher in primary school Mr John Speight and along with the locals I will hope that its good weather for one of the only music festivals of its kind in Australia.

I highly recommend to stay at the farm, not only for a different experience but for the beautiful scenery - how's the serenity?
