I
arrived
in
Toronto
by
train
from
Vancouver
on
Friday.
Friday
night
I
went
to
the
bar
with
Kyle,
Greg
and
Sean.
Saturday
I
was
delivered
back
to
Burlington.
After
a
night
out,
I
decided
to
break
my
hangover
by
skateboarding
to
Lettuce
Love.
I
arrived
mid
afternoon
and
immediately
felt
welcomed
back
to
my
hometown
after
one
year
of
being
away.
After
living
in
the
vegan
mecca
of
the
West
Coast
it
was
refreshing
to
be
brought
back
to
Burlington,
where
Lettuce
Love
has
been
a
plant-based
staple
for
years.
I
remember
dining
here
in
my
earlier
years
as
a
novice
vegan.
Returning
for
my
meal,
I
reflected
on
my
how
much
I
have
changed
and
grown.
A
reminder
of
how
my
departure
impacted
me
and
not
greater
community.
In
my
absence
not
only
had
veganism
in
Burlington
prevailed,
but
it
has
also
expanded.
If
I
wondered
why
veganism
was
becoming
more
widely
accepted
and
practiced
in
the
community,
the
answer
was
discovered
during
my
third
bite.
No
doubt
anyone
who
is
curious
about
plant-based
food
will
be
inspired
once
they
eat
at
lettuce
love.
The
food
is
exquisite,
offering
a
wide
range
of
dishes
to
satisfy
the
most
punctilious
of
palates.
Over
the
next
7
weeks
I
proceeded
to
eat
here
6
times,
often
seeking
refuge
from
my
non-vegan
surroundings.
I
had
the
fortune
of
having
tried
6
different
dishes.
If
that
sample
is
indicative
of
the
entire
menu,
I
assure
you
that
you
cannot
make
a
bad
choice
here.
Every
time
I
sat
down,
I
felt
replenished
by
the
compassionate
energy
emanating
from
the
cruelty
free
environment.
Upon
consuming
my
repast
to
its
entirety,
I
would
regain
my
strength
to
continue
fighting
for
the
animals
and
people
of
this
planet.
As
the
large
sign
engineer
for
Karina
Gould’s
victorious
Liberal
party,
between
canvassing
8
hours
a
day
and
expertly
installing
signs
around
the
city,
it
was
critical
that
I
was
properly
fueled.
Whether
it
was
a
nutrient
dense
veggie
burger,
a
dense
and
delicious
bowl
or
simply
some
flavour
dense
pancakes,
I
had
the
energy
to
peregrinate
across
the
city,
delivering
democracy.
As
I
am
writing
this
review
on
the
train
heading
toward
Toronto,
I
already
know
that
my
first
meal
will
once
again
be
at
Lettuce
Love.
