Clare’s original review

@thevurgerco & @avantgardevegan ’s new vegan sub is set to be a real people “peas”er 🥖⁣ {complimentary meal}

⁣

Your fave Shoreditch burger joint has got a couple of new menu additions so @thebigjolleyvegan & I popped down to try them out! Here’s what we thought:⁣

⁣

🌱⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣The Eastside Sub w/ crispy Thai fusion balls, fresh pea & edamame hummus, crispy shallot rings and maple & @tabasco green jalapeño glazed coconut chips⁣

💰£10.95⁣

✏️⁣ This is an unusual dish! I’ve never had anything like it before and I love that these guys are pushing the boundaries. The balls reminded me of a cross between meatballs & falafel. They’re crispy on the outside but soft inside. There’s a distinct vinegar flavour which I liked & a very mild heat. Loved the onions & super sweet coconut pieces! The contrast in flavours worked well. It’s a substantial portion but didn’t leave us feeling heavy⁣

❓Order Again?⁣⁣ ⁣Yes⁣

⁣

🌱⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣New York Melt w/ @beyondmeat patty, double vegan cheese, gherkins & burger sauce⁣

💰£10.95⁣

✏️⁣The team have ventured into the world of ‘meaty’ substitutes and I’m glad they have – now there’s something for everyone. This was done really well. The patty was cooked perfectly, the cheese is beaut, loved the tangy, sweet burger sauce & super chunky, juicy pickles. It reminded me a bit of the Leon love burger!⁣

❓Order Again?⁣⁣ ⁣Yes⁣

⁣⁣🌱⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Mac & cheese⁣

💰£4.95⁣

✏️⁣ I’ve always loved this! Every bite of pasta you take is loaded with creamy goodness. I find it gets better the more you eat too (trust me 😛)⁣

❓Order Again?⁣⁣ ⁣Yes⁣

⁣

🌱⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁣Salted caramel popcorn shake w/ whipped cream⁣

💰£4.95⁣

✏️⁣This was unreal – everything you want in a shake – creamy, sweet but not sickly and SO moreish. See the last video in the reel and let me know if you used to do the same or if I’m alone 🙈😂 ⁣
