We found ourselves starving one day when walking through the first district and we happened upon Hungry Guy. We know what you’re thinking – it’s not a typical place you’d think of when you think – vegan food. But our vegan-ass was hungry, so we reluctantly took 2 steps closer to the meat-heavy menu hanging outside and lit up when we saw two magical little words on it, “vegan burger”. We did a short, Irish jig, pulled ourselves together, and entered.
When our burger and fries arrived, our worlds were thoroughly rocked. The fresh and fragrant smoked tofu patty is served in a pita pocket and covered with the most delicious tahini sauce ever made (seriously, we would drink it) and topped with onions and, wait for it, canteloupe. If you’re thinking, “canteloupe – not sure about that,” then you’re in for a big surprise, because it turns out canteloupe and tahini on a burger make for a part-ay in your mouth-ay.
Hungry Guy’s vegan burger exceeded expectations and we’ll definitely be going back.
P.S. they like to brag that their fries are the best. As much as we’d love to challenge them, we can’t. They’re damn good.
