After a hard day of work, I headed off to the Eaton Centre to meet up with a friend. After browsing through some stores and checking out some clothes, I decided we should head to Mr. Greenjeans since it was really close by. I’ve been to this restaurant before at the bar, but can’t seem to remember what I ordered, I think it was the roasted vegetable pizza. This time around I ordered the vegetable “burger” with fries.

Vegetable "Burger"

The moment the dish arrived I started attacking it since I was so hungry, almost forgetting to take a picture! The dish consisted of a patty with black beans and some other ingredients that I didn’t really notice, topped with alfalfa sprouts, tomato (a single slice) and feta cheese. On the side, was a huge pile of fries and a garlic/herb (I believe it was rosemary) dressing on the side. After taking my first bite, I realised there was a problem. There was just WAY TOO MUCH alfalfa! This caused the burger to be bitter and just difficult to eat in general. After taking off two thirds of the alfalfa from the burger, I noticed a small undistributed mound of feta in the middle of the burger and promptly spread it evently over the patty. After these changes, the patty itself wasn’t too bad, slightly dry but still not bad for a vegetarian burger.

The service at the restaurant was decent, with no problems with our orders and extremely prompt service. My only complaint is that all the waitstaff had walkie-talkies that kept going off while they were walking around, which really destroyed the atmosphere. I didn’t remember this problem last time I visited, so maybe they just started using them.
