The Kenny Centre Mall is rife with hidden gems, from distinctive outlets to culinary gems like Xia Xia Chinese language Delicacies, ChiliSpot, Mochi Ring, and the entire Japanese Market with winners like Belle’s Bread, Akai Hana, and Tensuke Market.
Tucked into one of many harder-to-find corners, subsequent to a Kung Fu Tea, is a more moderen cafe known as VGET Cafe.
The house is clearly geared extra in the direction of carryout. It’s largely empty aside from a pair ordering kiosks, a trio of tables, and a small window for meals.
The house owners stated VGET means “making a greater life collectively,” and the phrase is emblazoned in a neon signal close to the door.
The beverage menu spans iced coffees, sizzling and iced lattes, tea, and smoothies. We tried the honeycomb sugar latte and the matcha latte.
One part of the menu is devoted to Taiwan rice wraps, that are large wraps of sticky rice, meats, and veggies in seaweed. We tried the signature rice wrap with a shredded dried pork jerky, Chinese language pickles, crispy fried dough bits, and lettuce. It’s a curious mixture of textures, from the crunchier pork jerky and fried dough bits, plus the softer rice and lettuce.
One in all their huge options – and definitely ones designed for Instagram – are the Korean egg toasts. They include a thick slice of toast minimize down the center and stuffed to bursting with a layered omelet, meats, cheese, lettuce, then a heavy drizzle of dressings.
We tried the Thai shrimp and egg toast, full of shrimp, eggs, cheddar, and lettuce, then drizzled with a Thai chili sauce.
It ought to come as no shock that these are very messy to eat. General, the elements come collectively fairly effectively, though the lettuce will get a bit wilty compressed towards the nice and cozy components.
We additionally tasted the New Orleans rooster and egg toast. It encompasses a rooster cutlet, eggs, cheddar, and lettuce, drizzled with mayo and ketchup. The server requested if we needed the cutlet with pores and skin on or off, suggesting the pores and skin on as a result of it was just a little crispier. We didn’t perceive that this additionally meant bone-in! So only a heads up should you’re ordering this toast.
VGET Cafe is open Monday by Friday, 7:30 a.m. to five:30 p.m. and Saturday to Sunday, 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. They’re lively on all of the supply platforms, too.
