Green gourmet is vegetarian restaurant in Newtown and St. Leonards.
I have been to Green gourmet many times but for some reason, I have never been to dinner time.
I love yum cya on weekend! so many varieties! Also they do buffet lunch on weekday.
Finally we did have dinner!
For entree
wonton soup $5.5
wonton is home made. Making wonton is such a time consuming thing so I love eating them in restaurant not at home :)
Raw organic burdock salad $8.6
Japanese style shreded burdock roots, snowpea, lettuce and carrot seasoned with sesame seeds and vinegar.
Burdock is root veggies that is very popular in Japan. It is hard to get one in Sydney so I am very happy to have one. Slightly sweet salad. Yummy!
For main,
Crisp skin not chicken shantung sauce $15.8
Crisp fried wheat protein served with pickles vegetable, chili, vinegar and peanuts. I don’t cook mock meat at home ( mock meat is processed food after all ) but sometime, I can treat myself …they are yummy!
Clay pot tofu pillow with eggplant $15.8
Succulent pillow of tofu sheets cooked slowly with fresh eggplant and pickled vegetable.
Huge portion! Love it :)) Also quite often, eggplant dish is quite oily but not this dish.
Very importantly, brown rice is available here. Even better thing is that rice with beans! Complete protein !!!
Five grain rice
Brown rice, red bean, perl barley and kidney bean
Steam vegan custard coconuts dumpling
not too sweet, just right!!! and it is vegan!
All food here has NO garlic or onion. Pure vegetarian…actually vegan.
I have been a lunch time girl here but I am happy to be dinner girl!
can’t wait to go there again
