About Vegetarian St. Lawrence Market

Vegetarian restaurants face the challenge of providing a great dining experience to vegetarians in a society where people are accustomed to having meat as part of their entrée. While many around the world are vegetarian for religious reasons, there is a huge market for vegetarians-by-choice, those who have eaten meat previously but chosen not to any longer. Vegetarian food is often seen as being overly simplistic and it is the challenge of vegetarian chefs to come up with complex and innovative creations that defy this stereotype.
Many dishes served at vegetarian restaurants are derived from Indian or Mexican cuisine which use fresh vegetables and spices to flavour dishes and often have beans or peas as a main protein source. These cuisines have heavily influenced the vegetarian diet in North American during the last fifty years. Many Indian cuisines are already vegetarian, such as Brahmin cuisine which uses a lot of coconut oil and curry leaves and is heavily influenced by South Asian cuisine as a whole. Brahmin cuisine includes dishes like vegetable stews, spicy pulse vegetables, flatbreads, potatoes and beans. Vegetarian restaurants frequently serve Indian samosas, a fried pastry with savoury filling, as an appetizer.
Italian cuisine is readily adapted for vegetarian menus and favourites such as Bruschetta, many types of Risotto and traditional Pizza Margherita can be served unadulterated to vegetarian patrons. Asian dishes are readily adopted by vegetarian restaurants in the form of vegetarian pad Thai and vegetable sushi. Sushi restaurants are also great for vegetarian fare although not all vegetarians eat fish. Tempura, edamame and miso soup are all delicious vegetarian options and can be found at any traditional sushi house.
Vegetarian restaurants may use various meat replacements as the cornerstone of an entrée, such as soy-based meat substitutes, tofu, tempeh or mushroom. These healthy alternatives are often virtually indistinguishable from the meats they are meant to be replacing. Many restaurants also offer vegetarian versions of their menu items in which meat items are swapped out for a vegetarian alternative. Vegetarian restaurants have reversed this idea by creating vegetarian versions of classic dishes, like a vegetarian burger made with a mushroom instead of a beef or vegetarian patty.
Vegan raw food bars have become increasingly popular and entrees such as vegetarian wraps and tacos are typically served there. Raw pizza is even made available with the baked pizza dough substituted for a tortilla shell and raw vegetables. Although this type of meal may seem unappetizing at first, raw food is filling and has higher nutrient content before being cooked. Vegetarian restaurants exhibit excellent creativity in finding ways to create complete and nutritious meals that cater to Western taste preferences and yet don't contain any meat products.
Vegetarian restaurants are more popular than ever before thanks to the fervor surrounding healthy eating and the growing number of vegetarians-by-choice. Restaurants like "Fresh on Bloor", which serves delicious fruit smoothies with nutritional supplements alongside succulent entrees and unforgettable appetizers, prove that vegetarian food can be both healthy and gastronomically satisfying. Menu Palace has listings for all of the premium vegetarian restaurants in Toronto and the GTA.
