They have vegetarian nuggets to, and a new ‘chicken’ burger available at some of their stores. Not at the Melbourne ones though, which is a shame.

They also do onion rings. The onion rings are the best in the world. It’s got actual onion in it and OMG it tastes good! Especially with the vegan mayo : )

Yeah i didn’t realise it was vego til i was ordering a burger & chips, and it was quite expensive & then i realised why- cos its vego.. but it was VERY nice food. Next time i will order the BIG burger not the tiny one as it is the size of my thumbnail (still quite filling when you get it with the chips). It is a bit exxy, but since i only visit Melbourne once a year i will try it again next time for sure.

panda: hahah yeah – i didn’t know it was a vegetarian burger til my foodie friend pointed it out to me. Terribly surprised.

Glad you like our blog! Hope you come back often =)

Anita: Tell me about it. Everything sounded so good and so I felt a bit let down by it.

shez: hahaha the servings are really generous, aren’t they? We were so stuffed after that. Practically rolled back to our hotel for a little afternoon nap! hahah

Arwen from Hoglet K: Oh well, these things happen I suppose =P But yes, the mock meat was really convincing!

Belle@OohLook: The mock meat, the website tells me, is made from “Textured Vegetable Protein”, which gives it the “look, taste, and texture of beef with virtually no fat”.

Linda: Totally agree with you on it being delicious being served plain. My foodie friend kept saying that even without the sauce it was seasoned really well – and it was! =) Oooh, I should have asked for that! I like dipping my chips. Next time, next time ^_^

FFichiban: Hahah do we have another crispy chips fan?

Ellie: They serve chips with mayo in Berlin as well! Seems like a European thing haha. I don’t think they have the other sauces in Berlin though – mmm sounds delish! ^_^ And I concur, sucks that Sydney doesn’t have a place like this, serving chips with all sorts of sauces. (Or if we do, why haven’t we heard about it!?)

Nate: Their mock meat is made from textured vegetable protein – something I’ve never heard of before, but maybe you can make better sense of it than I can ^_^ hehe

billy@ATFT: Definitely go =) Hopefully you won’t have to wait in line for too long!

sydneyguyrojoe: Yeah, the poutine sauce is basically cheese and gravy – doesn’t sound all that nice does it? But somehow it just works =D

What is this mock meat? Is it some kind of soy product or a mixture? Nate’s last blog post..Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: Ultimate Backyard Lu’au

That’s exactly how they serve chips in street stalls or snack bars in Holland and Belgium. I have been waiting for this concept to reach Australia. Too bad, I haven’t heard of one in Sydney The sauces available in Holland are mayo, peanut satay sauce (Indonesia was colonized by Dutch, some of their dishes and sauces are influenced by Indonesia), curry (the similar kind of curry sauce you had with your sausages in German), ketchup and piccalilly. In Belgium, they only serve with mayo sauce, nothing else! The Belgium Restaurant Epoque in Cammeray used to served the best thick Belgium chips with the authentic Belgium mayo, but they no longer do so….

I experienced the fries on my last trip to Melbourne! I didn't realise it was a vegetarian burger place and still hadn't until I read your blog as my friend and I weren't after a meal, I was just after a chip fix! As I also don't like soggy chips, I ordered mine without any sauce and they were delicious just plain. The crispiness lasted all the way back to the hotel room and later. Hmmm, I wonder if they would serve the sauce on the side?! Linda’s last blog post..PIE IN THE SKY - Cowan

Great, another one for my list of places to eat in Melbourne! Do you know what the mock meat was made of? The burgers look really good! Belle@OohLook’s last blog post..Boscaiola - the delicious sauce

It's a shame you were unlucky with the sauce! The mock meat looks incredibly real, and I like the idea of serving it with jalapenos and sour cream. Arwen from Hoglet K’s last blog post..Almond Horns
