Bloom Sushi

Ever go to a bar and the only vegan food they offer are the olives in your martini? At Cheeky Martini Lounge, all their dishes (and martinis, and other drinks) are vegan!

Papyrus
337 Danforth Ave., Toronto, ON M4K 1N7 Canada
Saving for a trip to Egypt? Dreaming of eating a picnic by the pyramids with a basket filled with authentic Egyptian goodies? While you will still need to get to Egypt for your rendezvous with the Giza Necropolis, you may have a short cut to the food part! This Egyptian vegan restaurant serves food for the soul – they call it the “balance of fresh and umami” (savory). From hearty soups, yummy ful sandwiches filled with fava beans blended with flavors from Egypt to drool-worthy konafa – a pastry stuffed with cheese and wrapped in crispy vermicelli-like dough, you can find your happy palate and a four-course meal here. If you want to get adventurous and mix-and-match your sandwich or order a cold dessert, the options are plenty. At the end of the day, this is sure to please your taste buds and become an unforgettable sensory experience to etch in your memory lane! Be aware, they do close for some local holidays observed in Canada.
