03 9041 9000hello@justfalafs.com.auThe main holdup many Aussies have with going vegan is the incredible flavors that come with meat dishes! A Michelin star plant-based chef describes this challenge below:
"The main challenge for me is for my food to appeal to everybody and for non-vegans / vegetarians not to miss meat, fish etc when they eat with us. Also, to keep creating and innovating new delicious dishes for our guests. The development of each dish is quite extensive as my personal benchmark in what I’m trying to achieve is so high! We need to create richness without dairy, intense depth of flavour in sauces without meat stocks, incredible desserts without sugar – so this takes a lot of time and work to get right."
Vegan restaurants in Fitzroy more than rise to the challenge, bringing out the deep flavor of veggies that are properly roasted, sautéed, and seasoned to perfection. You’ll be amazed how many vegan options there are for dishes you are very familiar with. Zucchini pasta, for example, is arguably more flavorful than any enriched grain pasta. The flavors simply hit you in a fuller, crisper way, giving your body a plant-based boost 😊.
