I
have
ordered
HipCityVeg
twice
now
for
lunch,
and
have
been
thoroughly
impressed
by
both
experiences.
I
typically
go
for
salads
more
often
than
I
do
sandwiches,
which
meant
that
the
majority
of
the
menu
was
not
super
appealing
to
me,
as
they
appeal
to
the
more
"comfort
food"
side
of
vegan
offerings,
with
burgers,
'chicken'
sandwiches,
and
wraps.
Hipcityveg
is
known
for
their
crispy
chicken
sandwiches
though,
so
I
compromised
--
ordered
a
salad
and
an
order
of
the
chicken
nuggets.
My
first
order
included
the
udon
noodle
salad,
which
included
spicy
glazed
chick'n,
organic
arugula,
sprouts,
carrot,
cabbage,
daikon,
scallions,
peanuts,
and
a
chinese
black
bean
dressing.
The
"chicken"
was
absolutely
delicious,
and
the
entire
salad
was
packed
with
flavor.
On
the
side,
I
tried
the
chicken
nuggets,
which
had
an
unbelievably
great
texture
and
crispy
breading.
The
nuggets
were
well-seasoned,
and
the
"hipcityveg"
sauce
was
kind
of
a
mix
of
honey
mustard
and
tangy
BBQ,
and
paired
perfectly
with
the
nuggets.
A
colleague
who
had
never
had
a
chicken
substitute
before,
was
shocked
at
how
similar
the
nuggets
tasted
to
a
normal
chicken
nugget
--
she
claimed
that
she
would
not
know
the
difference
in
a
blind
taste-test.
The
second
time
around,
I
switched
things
up
with
the
jerk
caesar
salad,
which
included
grilled
jerk
chick'n,
organic
romaine,
jicama,
crispy
plantains,
and
a
creamy
caesar
dressing.
This
was
a
crisper,
lighter
salad
than
the
udon
salad,
and
surely
would
appeal
to
someone
who
loves
a
classic
caesar;
I
just
found
that
it
lacked
the
depth
and
flavor
that
the
udon
noodle
salad
delivered
on.
I
found
that
the
jerk
chicken
was
a
bit
less
exciting
than
the
spicy
glazed
chicken
that
was
on
the
udon
noodle
salad.
