the wonders of a non meat burger
I'm a pescatarian (eats fish, no meat) so it's been a while since i've chowed down on a burger. Plus i'm on a super healthy kick at the moment, but that didn't stop me from calling into Red Veg when last i was in london town.
Now call me food picky, but this place is a little on the greasy side. The veg / bap burgered combo tends to slip n slide off its 'grease proof' paper and becomes more bap rather than bean as you chow down. (I mean that they are on the mean side of generous with their fillings).
But i'm giving Red Veg 3 stars as the staff were super nice, the place is super clean (should be with all that burger grease) and unlike McD's the Kings of Burger world here one can opt out of Moo meat, and be rewarded by the sweet aroma of beany delights. And i mean in a flavourisome way, rather than a particularly whiffy windy pop.
So prepare to 'put a cork in it' for later, the burgers here are a safe stable alternative from Mc Greasy, but they could do more with fillings and inspiration for the menu.
A mediocre, could do better, like what you're doing so far three stars.
