While
the
restaurant
offers
a
unique
vegan
experience,
the
messaging
around
its
offerings
could
be
clearer.
The
two
neon
signs
"All
lives
matter"
and
"Meatless
doesn't
mean
tasteless"
are
a
playful
nod
to
the
establishment's
ethos,
but
the
menu
items
could
use
more
explicit
labeling.
Entries
such
as
'lamb
shank'
and
'roast
duck'
might
be
misleading
for
those
unfamiliar
with
the
concept
of
meat
substitutes.
It's
important
to
ensure
that
all
patrons
understand
that
every
dish
served
here
is
100%
vegan.
Moreover,
the
culinary
approach
leans
heavily
on
imitating
traditional
pub
meals.
Although
these
are
satisfying,
the
restaurant
could
potentially
elevate
its
game
by
exploring
original
vegan
dishes
that
don't
necessarily
mimic
their
meat-based
counterparts.
After
all,
vegan
cuisine
is
a
realm
ripe
with
creativity
and
diverse
flavors.
In
sum,
while
the
restaurant
is
distinctive
in
its
theme,
more
transparency
about
its
vegan
nature
and
perhaps
a
rethinking
of
its
menu
could
turn
it
into
a
destination
that
proudly
stands
on
its
vegan
merits,
rather
than
relying
on
a
mimicry
of
traditional
non-vegan
dishes.
I
approached
the
owner
about
this.
He
seem
bemused
and
shared
an
overseas
asian
experience
how
restaurants
who
ladled
themselves
as
Vegan,
but
upon
entering
the
restaurant
he
found
this
was
not
the
case.
He
was
tricked
and
found
this
to
be
mistruthful/decived
and
he
left
the
restaurant.
He
didn't
understand
that
he
had
just
done
that
to
us.
He
said
if
he
labled
his
food
as
Vegan
people
will
not
come,
I
said
that
is
not
true.
