And we went to automatic cafe at the casino. I was suprised to learn that this cafe had 3 items on the menu that were marked as vegan. Consdiering we are not talking about a cafe in the northern suburbs and we are talking about the casino I was surprised.Mr T and I shared the baked beans which were the BEST BAKED BEANS I HAVE EVER HAD. They had carrots in them that just kind of melted in your mouth and had a lovely smoky, slightly salty flavour.
We also had the dhal, which come with flat bread which was cooked in the wood oven and had some tomato based relish on this side. This was yummy but compared to the best baked beans ever you really can't even compare the two.
I look forward to trying the other vegan dish: chickpea cassoleut.Automatic cafe

surprisingly they've had vegan marked items on the menu since the late nineties (I worked at their sister one in sydney at that time)
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty impressive, that they have well marked vegan items for so long.
ReplyDeleteLove the pink cupcakes!
ReplyDeleteThose beans look delish and I'm not normally a baked beans fan!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the cupcakes and is that your cupcake courier?
I like the idea of sprinkling the cookie crumbs on because I can never pipe the icing when I mix them in, thanks!
Mandee, that's my small cheap coles cupcake carrier, but I've also got a cupcake courier.
