Veggie Virtues

Rating: NNN


You can find excellent vegetarian fare in hotspots all over Toronto. Try these and see what we mean.

KING’S CAFE (192 Augusta, between College and Dundas, 416-591-1340 or 416-591-9160) This ovo-lacto vegetarian eatery serves up healthy and nourishing meals that hit the spot despite some of the weirder mock-meat specialties. Best: asparagus hand roll (tender stalks, pickled carrot, meaty mushrooms and leaf lettuce in a toasted nori wrapper) fried udon noodles with baby corn, spinach, julienned red pepper, chewy ‘shrooms and tofu “beef” that’s actually quite tasty King’s Noodle Soup with slurpable rice noodles, broccoli and deep-fried tofu crustless quiche, a delicious blend of sun-dried tomato and cheese (feta, mozzarella, cottage), couscous, spinach and eggs Greg’s great green tea ice cream for dessert. Complete meals for $10 per person, including all taxes and tip. Open Monday to Saturday 8 am to 9 pm, Sunday 9 am to 6 pm. Unlicensed. Smoke-free. Cash only. Access: barrier-free, washrooms in basement. Rating: NNN
