Don’t believe the lies about a vegan kitchen

They told us over the phone that they’re vegan. They told us when we walked into the restaurant. And when I asked about their soft boiled egg and the margarine, they lied about the margarine, being canola oil. After I had already taken a picture and googled the product. I wouldn’t believe their surfaces are sanitary. The cook tried opening the wrong door, and everyone denied and acted like they didn’t know what I was talking about. They finally said it was for personal use, but they’re going through a lot of those bulk containers. Really disgusting. Also, HappyCow won’t let me give them a 1star for some reason

Pros: Looks tasty

Cons: Total Liars, Vegetarian

Ok, kid.. maybe you haven’t been vegan for very long, and perhaps you don’t go out much, and possibly you haven’t seen very many Asian restaurants that have vegetarian or veggie in the name, but are in fact vegan. Point is; we called over the phone and were also lied to as soon as we arrived at the restaurant. That might not mean much to you, but I don’t really care. As someone who has managed restaurants in NYC and had over a decade of exp in the field, nobody should be lying to customers. Enjoy whatever you like to enjoy, please stay out of other peoples business. It’s pretty lame and a little embarrassing, acting like you know better than others
