While driving down Sunset last night thru Echo Park I noticed the second location of Monty’s. It was packed and had a much larger space than Ktown. How do you guys like Monty’s?
Edit aww never mind it’s just an Impossible patty.
I rather have the Mushroom Burger at Shake Shack or the Vegan Burger at Burgerlords
SK’s Donuts (3rd St / Beverly-Grove)
I ordered the Chocolate Glazed & Banana Glazed. The glaze on the Chocolate has an artificial flavor, imo, but the Banana was delicious. 
The Yeast Dough is slightly chewier than the dairy recipe, but they’re still tasty donuts and I’d eat them again.
Had these yummies at Qi Steam Kitchen on San Vicente & Olympic. I could eat a batch of these… or two as a meal and be totally satisfied. Best Veggie Dumplings I’ve had.
Steamed Vegetarian Dumplings
Szechuan Chili Sauce & Garlic Vinegar Sauce
what’s inside?
IIRC - cabbage, carrots, bean thread noodles, maybe woodear shrooms, a couple other things & good flavor. 
I love a good veggie dumpling! So often I end up with a sad mess of unseasoned shredded cabbage and carrots inside 
And I’m very intrigued by the vegan raspberry shortcake donut in your first photo 
I agree @hanhgry. I know veggie dumplings aren’t the most exciting but these were a real treat. They were steamed perfectly to keep their texture & flavor.
Someone mentioned on the Qi Steam Kitchen thread that they lost a cook. I hope consistency stays the same.
Hi @hanhgry,
The next time you’re in the area, you should give Happy Noodle a try. We had some excellent Vegetarian Dumplings (Gyoza-style pan-fried, Steamed and Shan Dong Stuffed Bun style!). 
Enjoy!
Wow @Chowseeker1999, these dumplings look great! I am definitely putting this on my “must try” list.
Question- I am looking for a Chinese restaurant (can be takeout or dine-in) that serves tofu and Western broccoli with “brown sauce” or garlic sauce. I’ve searched on yelp and looked at menus for tons of places in central LA/SGV and have found only Chinese broccoli or they don’t include tofu. Or the tofu is stuffed with seafood. A little background- my husband grew up in the Philadelphia suburbs and I grew up in the DC suburbs. Nearly every Americanized Chinese food place around us had the same basic menu (orange chicken, General Tso’s, kung pao chicken, beef broccoli, etc) but they also could substitute with tofu. So you could get pretty decent orange or kung pao tofu. A lot of the places had tofu broccoli as a vegetarian option for the beef broccoli. We really want to find a place locally that does this!
although I realize that there’s probably some “contamination” involved with the sauces maybe not using entirely vegetarian ingredients, but I can ask the restaurant.
Not directly on point, and I don’t know if it is vegan, but I just had vegetarian hot and sour soup delivered from Din Tai Fung and it was really, really good. And I am really, really picky.
Din Tai Fung only seems to have a few vegetarian options, however. They have tons of vegetables, but all of them come a la carte and there is no option to add tofu (or lean protein if you are not a vegetarian). They also have only one vegetarian dumpling and one vegetarian bun.
Impossible taco salad at Mendocino Farms was very good. The crumbly impossible burger did a great impersonation of ground beef. Didn’t really miss the meat at all.
What site am I on
I’m getting ready for the coronavirus pandemic by running 8Ks and eating vegan once a month.
Can we still eat Chinese Brocolli? gai-lan
Was wandering around the Century City food court today and noticed this:
Was in the mood for meat, so I didn’t try it. Has anyone else heard of/tried this place?
I tried a falafel taco here and it was mediocre.
Haha that dude gets around. He’s always in downtown.
