Vegetarian Chinese comfort food. That’s how I would describe
Vegetarian’s Paradise 2, where I went with my roommate and his boyfriend to use
a Groupon that I had bought. I had read a lot about their “chicken” fingers and
so we all split an order of them. I hadn’t had fried food like that in a while,
so they were delicious, but eventually gave me a horrible stomach ache. The texture was a little strange, but that’s
understandable since they weren’t actually chicken.
For dinner, I ordered two entrees and brought half of each
home with me. I had the stuffed zucchini and one of the chicken dishes that
came with a bunch of different vegetables and brown rice.
Overall, nothing here
really impressed me. It didn’t taste healthy or fresh and the sauces were all
super fake tasting. I did like my roommates orange chicken, but again, it was
doused in sugary sauce. I'm really surprised by it's high ratings on Yelp.
If you couldn’t tell, I wasn’t a huge fan, and I doubt I
would ever take another trip here. It’s a strange little restaurant too- pretty
dingy and cheap looking inside. Sorry Vegetarian’s Paradise 2, you didn’t do it
for me.
