I love chunky tofus! I’ve been vegan for 7 years and I try to provide helpful reviews—honest and fun. I’m also a poet based in Virginia, USA :D

Vegan pisco sour! @ramaya used aguafaba to make some pisco sour! Pisco sour is a classic drink from #peru. I’m Peruvian and have never had the traditional pisco sour because it is not vegan. Pisco sour is known for its foaminess more

Nice! I loved the big grilled mushroom! It was crispy on the outside—a bit too crispy for me but still great. It had pickled onions which paired well. The bun was soft but did not get soggy. I had it with fries and their more

Alright, so the presentation needs work because it does look like a hot mess, BUT I can’t believe there is a whole vegan cinnamon roll restaurant and I love it. I’m not a big fan of birthday cake flavored stuff but it was more

I really enjoyed the chicken, pieces of it were easily stripped off and it was enjoyable to eat with your hands. The French toast was okay—the texture felt too thick for me. It filled me up too fast. I do love bread therefore more

This was multigrain pita with hummus. The pita was good but not enough slices to finish all the hummus. The hummus itself was well done and the apricots were a nice touch.

The oat milk costs a bit more. I like the presentation. It wasn’t too sweet which is a plus.

This muffin is always well made. Nice crumbly texture but not too crumbly. It can be cut in slices and keep its shape. Surprisingly filling.

Solid coffee cake! Not too dry, not too sweet. Not as crumbly as I expected and I do like when coffee cake crumbles, but the texture was good overall. Of course, it’s great with coffee but I had it by itself as desert.

This was great! The tofus were chunky!I Don’t usually go for biscuits but I liked it. They were not too flaky. The maple added a bit of sweetness but not overpowering. Well done.

We went camping for five days straight during the summer and the best part is we had amazing food! @ramaya prepped beforehand by making tofu scramble and blended beans to have with bread for breakfast. As well as spaghetti more
