We both ordered some drinks to start. I got the Jasmine Garden juice, which had apple, pear, cucumber, spinach, and mint. So refreshing! And Ashleigh got the Vietnamese Coffee Affogatto, which is vegan by default with coconut sorbet, coconut sago pearls, and a sesame praline.
We shared some rice paper rolls and some spring rolls to start. I love the rice paper rolls the best, though the spring rolls were good too. I just prefer the freshness of rice paper rolls. Plus the hoisin peanut dipping sauce!
I ordered the Buddha Vermicelli Noodle Salad, which is topped with lemongrass tofu, crispy tofu, and spring rolls. This is my favourite thing there, as it is so fun and refreshing.
Ashleigh got the Vegan Vietnamese Tofu Curry, which is advertised as a mild yellow curry. Ashleigh liked it a lot. I tried a little bit and, yes, that mild was too spicy for me!
They also have a little sweets case, which often has vegan sweets. We grabbed a couple of chocolate chip cookies to go.

I hope you aren't sick of my Gizmo photos yet. Her helping me study. She was such a helpful girl.
Yum! How good does that food look?? I’m so hungry now. 😍
ReplyDeleteI am always hungry after reading or writing blog posts. So much good food in the world!
DeleteOh yum!! This all looks incredible and you had me and peanut hoisin sauce. That sounds so good. I really want to try that salad that you ordered, it looks so fresh and delicious!
ReplyDeletePeanut and hoisin are two of the best sauces, together they are so amazing.
DeleteThose bun salads are one of my favourite foods ever.
Anything with lemongrass tofu has my vote!! But the curry looks delicious too! I'm really bad at choosing!
ReplyDeleteI will never get sick of seeing Gizmo! My Dylan was also super helpful when I was reading!! Ha!
I love how cats always know the best ways to help. ;)
DeleteSummer rolls are my favorite! Your noodley salad and tofu sounds fantastic- your friend’s curry probably would have made me cry ;)) i learned a long time ago that any ethnic restaurant that refers to a spicy dish as “mild” is kinda lying!

Haha, yes. Anytime someone says something is mild, I am so suspicious. It is sad, because I love Thai food but all of the curries are too hot for me regardless of what they claim. Thank goodness for peanut sauce and pad see ew!
DeleteThose cookies are picture perfect.
ReplyDeleteThey were taste perfect as well!
DeleteEverything looks amazing, especially your noodle salad! Sweet Gizmo, so helpful!
ReplyDeleteShe always knew the best ways to help.
