Taiwan Snack Shop & Deli

I wandered past this on my way home midweek after previously having dismissed it as another not-for-vegetarians snack shop but this time I read the menu properly and found that they do indeed cater to vegetarians. As well as a couple of pancake items (which I would like to return to try later), there is a vegetarian BBQ pork burger.

Given that this is a Taiwanese snack shop it makes sense, that they have veggie options, Taiwan is amazingly vegetarian-friendly, it seems that you can find a vegetarian restaurant in almost every neighbourhood there, (although you might find that most of your fellow diners are in the over-50 age range).

I wasn't too hungry so I only ordered the burger and decided to stay to eat. The rating area is just on the street so it's a bit warm in the summer but that's just normal in Hong Kong. The server was really friendly, he indicated for me to be seated first and didn't take my money until after the meal (somehow this feels like a friendly gesture in a fast food shop). It was only him working so he prepared the food whilst I waited and in five minutes it was brought out to me along with a glass of water.

Vegetarian BBQ pork burger

The bun was not a plain white bun, maybe not wholewheat either but a little brown and with oats on top. Sprinkled on the base of the bun was pumpkin floss, (I've only had this in Taiwan before), which added a nice crunch. Then came the 'pork' part. It was of the fake meat variety, like a couple of slices of fake pork. I'm afraid I can't tell you if it actually tastes like pork, I don't know what the real think tastes like. But I can tell you that it tasted meaty and BBQ-y which was really nice. It was topped with some crisp lettuce and salad dressing. I liked the combination of the meaty BBQ flavour with the freshness of the lettuce, also the dressing added a nice sharp sweetness.

I really appreciate it when places like this provide clearly advertised vegetarian options, it was a nice little snack and I hope I can go back to try the sweet potato pancake soon.
