Ordering the impossible Vegan Royale at Burger King

Burger King is now serving the vegan royale which uses the patty from The Vegetarian Butcher.

Last week, they launched the vegan royale on Monday 26/04/2021 so the first thing I did was to try and order it but none of the stores nearby lets you order online. 

A few days later I discovered my local had it which meant I had to use the coupon where it has to be redeemed in 15 minutes. 

Finally after a few days wait it is Monday 3/05/2021 so I redeemed at home with wifi got to the store and there was a long queue, by the time I got there they said they said I had to login which I couldn't because I don't have wifi.

I already had a code APP820 so why couldn't they use it which clearly says to be used at the counter.

But clearly the timed redemption is stupid when there is a long queue.


Thanks to this stupid redemption thing, BK have successfully gained an email address for their marketing purposes while I'm at a loss not being able to take advantage of their offer to review this vegan burger on my main blog and vegan groups which is to their loss not mine as well as @vegetarianbutcher

Anyway, Burger King has a complacent attitude because they think customers will come back.

Third week on, I decided to try and get the Vegan Royale at 1.99 so I installed the app as well as redeemed online.

The app clearly failed because it does not work without wifi, so I had to resort to the redemption code method. Luckily the staff knew about the code and this not turn me away this time.

 To summarize, the Vegan Royale tasted really good as if it was a regular chicken royale.

The mayonnaise was creamy and delicious and the lettuce was fresh.

[Food News] Vegan shallot burger and Cherry Blossom treats at Shake Shack United Kingdom

Shake Shack UK are serving a limited edition Vegan Crispy Shallot burger from April 12th.
A bespoke vegan patty created in collaboration with Chef Neil Rankin, topped with smoky cheddar, beer-marinated crispy shallots, lettuce, and tangy Dijonnaise sauce on a toasted potato bun – all 100% vegan.
Originally a limited edition burger in 2021 was so popular that it is permanently on the menu. 
A vegan patty created in collaboration with Chef Neil Rankin.
The patty is made with roasted mushrooms,  onion, miso, bulgur wheat and a blend of spices which makes it savoury. 
It is topped with smoky cheddar, beer-marinated crispy shallots, lettuce, and tangy Dijonnaise sauce on a toasted potato bun.
I had this late at night and albeit being very salty it was so good because the cheese was decent and I liked the umami taste while the dijonnaise is a nice complement being not sweet.
The veggie patty is pure veg which makes it nice and not made with chewy meat inspired stuff which gives it that nice soft texture. 





With Cherry Blossoms blooming in spring, Shake Shack are serving Cherry Blossom shake, Cherry Blossom lemonade and Cherry Blossom fifty fifty (half lemonade and tea).
The cherry blossom shake is Vanilla frozen custard blended with cherry blossom jam, topped with whipped cream and pink chocolate curls.

As I had a surplus of Chinese cabbage, I decided to pickle them with Sichuan salt and pepper with Shaoxing wine.

Retro food joint in Sanpokong

I love these old food stalls because everything has remained the same from the fixtures to the signage.
The menus are hand written and the seating area outside the stall.
They serve the usual local stuff and the stir fried spaghetti seems the best which I will order on the next visit.
Overall, I was impressed with the macaroni because they used the smooth elbow one and not the annoying ribbed ones.
Let's see if this place gets passed down to the next generation.
