You’re a vegetarian at a restaurant with your omnivorous friends and the only real vegetarian item on the menu is a salad or a downgraded alternative version of a meat-filled dish. I get it — I’ve been there, as a fellow vegetarian myself. Head to Blind Faith Cafe to see that vegetarian food can be more than rabbit food.

Located at the heart of the Main-Dempster Mile, the restaurant is well worth the trek. You’re surrounded by warm, welcoming employees and your favorite cuisines made vegetarian. 

Craving something spicy? Go for the vegan Mexican breakfast or the breakfast burrito. How about Asian cuisine? Say hello to the Mongolian stir-fry or the Thai peanut noodles. Want to travel to Europe from the comfort of your wooden restaurant chair? Get the Mediterranean omelette or the pesto pasta primavera.

Of course, if salads are your thing, you’re in for a treat. Blind Faith Cafe offers a wide variety that deviates from the conventional lettuce and tomatoes — from the Thai noodle salad to the Jerusalem lentil salad or Mediterranean rice salad, your salads don’t have to be green and unoriginal if you don’t want them to be.

The options are endless and animal-friendly. No longer do you need to spend 15 minutes interrogating the server about their non-existent vegetarian options — you’re in control of what you eat at Blind Faith Cafe.
