The texture is fluffy with just the right golden crisp on the edges, and they're surprisingly light despite being packed with protein. No chalky aftertaste, no overly dense bite--just a clean, satisfying stack that feels indulgent and fueling at the same time. Topped with fresh fruit and a drizzle of syrup, every bite felt balanced and comforting. Perfect post-workout brunch vibes or a guilt-free weekend treat. If you're someone who loves brunch but also tries to keep things on the healthier side, this is the kind of plate that proves you really can have both. Elite tip: Pair it with a good coffee and take your time--this is the kind of breakfast that deserves to be savored. #YelpElite #BrunchFinds #ProteinPancakes #HealthyBrunch

This is a great restaurant for those who have allergies. They sell cookies, muffins, cupcakes,…read morecakes (including cupcake cakes), donuts, pies, etc. They also sell cupcake decorating kits! They can handle to special occasions with customized cakes, cookies, and cupcakes. Their food is gluten-free, plant-based and nut-free, made fresh daily. The kitchen is free from gluten and priority allergens (peanuts, tree-nuts, wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, sesame, fish, crustaceans and molluscs). You can also email them with questions about your specific circumstances. The restaurant was opened 2018-05-19 by Matt and Pauline, a husband and wife team. Their son has multiple allergies so they were inspired to help so many other children and adults with allergies, which sometimes can be fatal. You can order directly from their website for larger quantities to get volume discounts. You can order customized savoury meals for $7.95 (small) and $10.95 (large). You start with 1 or 2 base, add proteins, add veggies, and top with warm sauces or vinaigrettes. There are hot/cold coffees, organic teas, and hot chocolate.  They use oat milk since their drinks are dairy-free and gluten-free. Their food has been greatly appreciated and trusted by so many people. They have a "Wall of Fame" with pictures of some of the many children they have helped and the children are so happy with the food. I ordered a Cookies and Cream Cupcake ($3.95) and Oatmeal Raisin Cookie ($2.00) online. The entire process was very simple. You would include your pickup date and time. When I arrived, there where 2 buttons I front of the entrance door (facilitating curbside pickup/takeout). There are buttons for "new orders & questions" and for "pickup & deliveries". Someone (in my case, Matt) would come out within 30 secs. My order was ready in a paper bag ready for pickup. I told Matt that I wanted to take photos of my two items before I ordered a soft-serve slush (a Dole Whip) later so that it didn't melt (it was a sunny 22C day after all!). Matt was very friendly and understanding. While I was taking photos, there were 2 other customers who arrived to make new orders for takeout. They asked questions about the contents of the food before ordering. Matt expertly answered their questions and they were sold! It gives me confidence that the food is legit. I am absolutely no expert on allergy-free food so it is good that I saw 2 satisfied customers. Of course I asked Matt some questions about the restaurant and the food. Then I ordered a vegan soft-serve in a plastic cup ($3.95). The two possible flavours are raspberry and pineapple. Matt even said it is possible to get half-half so I agree since it would make it more photogenic. You might think I choose food based on its look! And you may be right about that! It came out very colourful. Together I had 3 food items with 3 very different colours on a sunny day.. .  a photographer's delight. And I would shoot photos against the bench (with character!) in front of their restaurant. The allergens (especially lack thereof) are listed for each food item. The cupcake and cookie are plant-based, gluten-free, peanut-free, nut-free, dairy-free, egg-free, and soy-free. The Whip is dairy-free, fat-free, cholesterol-free, gluten-free, kosher, and no artificial colours. As for taste, I liked it. You can taste the lack of "bad" ingredients replaced by healthy ingredients. It is a treat for me since i tend too eat foods with too much sugar, salt, and fat. It would be nice to see nutrition facts but I known small restaurants are not required to have them. They are so health-aware but what about their packaging? Are they environmentally friendly? Yes they are! The plastic used for the cupcake is made of plant-based plastic which is recyclable in certain municipalities. The plastic wrapping (which is well sealed) used for their cookies are recyclable if cleaned. When there are no pandemic restrictions, there is indoor dining, free WiFi, washrooms, and wheelchair accessible. There is street parking and if you are lucky, free 1-hour parking. The neighbourhood are filled with restaurants. Review 2021-065 You can also find me on Instagram @chuan_chee. Thanks.

My wife and I tried: - Strawberry shortcake and vanilla field berries cupcakes: Amazing frosting, really moist cupcake. Don't know how they did it but the icing had a super buttery consistency, and this plant-based cupcake was light and yummy. - Snickerdoodle and chocolate chip cookies: Not close to the cupcakes but still good. Cookies were chewy versus gooey (not my personal preference), and would have liked bigger and more chips. But overall good, especially considering all the things it didn't have. - Coffee: Gotta find out what oat milk they used since that was good. Happy to hype up Hype since it definitely delivers!

Since everything was plant-based, it made it hard deciding what we'd order. We ultimately went with the First Canadian Bowl ($15) with tempeh, quinoa, grains, greens, and topped with this tangy dijon mustard dressing that really elevated the bowl. The bowl was absolutely delicious and it came with such large portions that we took half back home. On the way out, we also snagged one of their brownies which made for a delectable, chocolatey snack. Staff were super friendly and very easy on the eyes too haha. Thanks Kupfert & Kim for a great plant-based meal.

I especially loved the Green Goddess Bowl - lots of greens and mix of textures (including the soft lentils, crisp spinach and broccoli, and crunchy walnuts & toasted pumpkin seeds). The dressing was flavourful. I liked that we could mix and match the vegetarian bowls with different protein options, including salmon and tempeh. Customer service was very nice and friendly.

Usually when I visit on weekdays either around lunch hours of 1-3 or after work 5-8, there's only 1 person ahead of me. Basil Box has a special place in my heart. I've been visiting several of their locations since they first started out in Toronto. It's one of my go-to spots when I need something that feels like healthier fast food. Most of my orders turned out to be terrible combinations full of regret that were totally my fault. For one order, I asked them to cover my BYOB in Thai Chilis, not realizing how spicy it was, and spent the whole meal crying inside their store while their staff looked on. During my most recent visit, I was lucky and realized maybe Peanut Sauce is the key to the BYOB. I got their Tofu curry walk in daily special for ~$11. It was so good, I was really surprised. The portion was enough to stretch to a 2nd meal. Although weirdly the rice hardened so I ended up throwing those leftovers away...:( Their Thai iced tea is OK. I feel every other BBT spot makes it better. Theirs is a bit watery. I tried their new satay fries. It's just fries seasoned with some satay seasoning powder (if you add on an egg to your dish, know you're literally getting a sunny side up egg with that powder on top). I thought it was too salty, and had to drown it out with other food items. They have a partnership with Wong's ice cream so I definitely recommend trying those pints out. Lots of different seating, good if you're alone or with friends. It's also relatively quiet; you could probably get away with studying or working remotely here.
