Loving Hut #3

Heavenly Salad. Very evident South Eastern flavours. The prawns (vegan) actually taste like prawns. Served with Vegan Prawn chips. yummy. Quite a lot of salad for a side dish.

Sweet and sour soup. A light style of dish. I recommend to have it with rice.

Braised fish pot. I quite like this. Tasted a lot like fish. The only criticism i have is that it should have been a little more flaky to mimic the texture of fish. Otherwise a nice dish.

Loving Hut: Canley Heights – Revisit.

Vegan Dim Sims.

I found these to be Mushy and flavourless unfortunately.

In contrast to my previous visit, I did not enjoy the food quite as much as the last time. Generally I do like the food at Loving Hut. As always the staff are very friendly.

As always I intend to provide more reviews in future.

 

Ungaro Raw

Found this place in Rozelle on the weekend.

One of their Green Juices. It was a little warm. A little ice would have made it better.

Raw Vegan Lasagna. They used Zucchini slices instead of pasta sheets. Very nice.  The dressing/sauce is what makes this dish.

 

 

 

Ainsley Harriott: Sundried Tomato & Garlic Cous Cous

Found this in the supermarket today. Costs about $2.50AUD and contains two packets in it.

Basically you empty the contents of the satchet into a bowl, pour some hot water, wait, then fluff it up. Pretty easy. Pretty average tasting. But good if you are after a cheap and easy meal at work.

Went to the Loving Hut: Vegan Restaurant for Dinner.

They serve Vietnamese influenced Vegan cuisine, which is the predominant style of food around the area. The menu does contain things such as chips, and vegan burgers though.

Duck (fake meat) wraps with pickled cucumber and carrot with coriander to start. Very delicious. Didn’t realise I wasn’t eating meat.

Vegan Pho Noodles with copious amounts of bean sprouts served on the side. Normally I get the “special beef” Pho noodles, and in comparison the Vegan alternative doesn’t quite match up. They are o.k but not quite as good. I think they tried to intensify the flavour by adding heaps of cardamon which was quite off putting.

Vermicelli Noodles with spring rolls and shredded pork.

Quite tasty. A little dry. Which is offset by some sauce served on the side. Maybe some extra vegies/salad to offset it would be better?

I will be conducting more reviews on this restaurant in the future. 🙂
