Merit Vegetarian: Meat-Free Flavors
April 14, 2015 | sack
The cuisines of China, Thailand, Vietnam, and India converge in sizzling clay pots at Merit Vegetarian. Here, dishes are all vegan—you won't find any egg or milk (or MSG, for that matter) in any menu item.
What you will find are authentic flavors and healthy ingredients. The eatery's most popular dish is the gourmet deluxe, piled with deep-fried "chicken" in a spicy lemongrass sauce, served over broccoli. Customers also love the Vietnamese crepe, which one diner dishes is "just like how mom makes it." According to reviews, the chefs know how to handle tofu, which can be a notoriously fickle protein, especially when attempting to masquerade it as meat. Try the tofu eggplant clay pot, which teems with fried organic tofu, eggplant, and mushrooms (all doused in a house sauce).
