VeganMoFo 2018 #15: Eating Out: Dicki's

Dicki's is the not-so-new kid on the vegan block in Brisbane. But it took me a while to get around there. The first time I went was to have lunch with a friend. I had a hard time choosing between the ELT (crumbed eggplant, lettuce, and tomato toastie) and the Crispy Tofu Bao... so I got both! They were both lovely, though the bao were my favourite.





My friend got the Nurture Bowl, full of all sorts of things.



Dicki's has a fun range of drinks. Often, I can't have fun drinks because they are generally fizzy and I don't do fizz (kombucha excepted, but even then I have to let it go a bit flat). But they said they could make any of them on cold still water for me. Hurrah! I had a lovely Myrtle Lemonade, and my friend had the Apple Cream Soda (fizzy style).



We finished off with some cake, and I also had a turmeric latte. They have a range of baked goods to choose from. This cake was amazing! It was gluten free as well, but so dense and delicious that you couldn't tell. I had mine sans-ice cream, as they use the very coconutty Over The Moo brand there.





I went back another time on my own, when I was passing by the area for a quick lunch. The menu had changed since the first time I was there, and sadly both ELT and Bao were gone. But there were still lots of other options. This time I tried the Apple Cream Soda, but on the nice still water. It was sweet and lovely.



I went for the Classic Burger. A mushroom-based house patty, slice of cheese, lettuce, tomato, dill pickle, and a side of shoestring fries.



And here is a reflective photo of their dessert case.



Dicki's is well worth a visit. They have also recently started having a dinner menu, though I haven't been for that.
