The Lunch Room started as a Food
Cart located in the Mark’s Carts Courtyard.
With much success and a growing fan-base they were able to sign a lease
in the Kerrytown Shops and offer more seating, hours, and food. This is when I found them. I was following their story through Facebook,
I don’t get to the area Mark’s Carts is set up during serving hours since my
offices are not within walking distance to get there and back again with a
chance to eat in the middle.
Now located in the Kerrytown
Shops I can walk there on lunch for a little treat from their desserts, or sit
for a bit to eat.
The addiction started with a (not
so) little Macaroon, and I have to admit that I like them more than Zingerman’s
Macaroons. Great moisture and they have
chocolate on them!
I had to go back and get a macaroon for Rob, they are one of his favorite cookies, but they didn't have them the day I went back. I couldn't walk out empty handed to I got a doughnut, raspberry lemonade, Yum! I tried again, still no macaroons that time either, so I had to try a cookie, mexican chocolate chip, the spice builds on that one, Yum! Finally got a macaroon for Rob and he was delighted, and picked up a pumpkin whoopie pie for myself :)
I worked up the courage for
lunch and tried the Banh mi chay: The Lunch Room’s take on this classic
Vietnamese baguette sandwich with marinated baked tofu, carrot-radish pickle,
jalapenos, and fresh cilantro and mint with garlic mayo. Served on our
housemade baguette $7.
With the balanced flavors and
wonderful textures, it is truly amazing to believe that they are 100%
Vegan! That’s right folks, they are a
vegan restaurant.
