Delighted by Vegetable Delight
I finally got a chance to visit Vegetable Delight in Granada Hills and it was as great as I’d expected it to be.
This was the Lemon Veggie Chicken, a true winner in the “oh damn, this is SO good” department. The fake chicken is made of fresh mushrooms, soy bean flour and gluten. It’s got some sort of breaded outer layer, is fried to a degree of perfect crispiness, then coated in a thick, sweet and tangy lemon sauce. Served on a bed of cabbage and with brown rice. Really very delicious.
Vegetable Delight uses only natural ingredients and their chef hand makes everything.The menu is all vegan and ginormous. I’m talking 18 appetizers, 5 salads, 13 soups, 78 main courses, 20 rice & noodle dishes, and many other specialties like casseroles and sizzling plates. I am slightly in awe. Next time I’ll try something a little healthier and non-fried.

This is so good to know. I love the art of fake meat, but my enjoyment is always a bit tempered by the sneaking suspicion that the chicken came out of a bag and is probably loaded with all sorts of chemicals that I wouldn’t eat if I knew they were there, not to mention whey and/or eggs. So thanks. Perhaps there will be a trek to Granada Hills in my near future.

Trina: This place is totally worth the drive. Once you’ve stuffed yourself silly there, drive on over to Reseda to their sister restaurant, Garden Wok (not far from Vinh Loi).
