Best Vegan Burgers in Shanghai

2017-04-21 ShanghaiWOWeng

You care about the environment. You cycle to work, turn off the tap when brushing your teeth, carry you own coffee mug to Starbucks & are mad at those irresponsible nations who burn fossil fuels for their factories. But according to an UN study in 2006, your largest carbon footprint is probably your diet. We will exceed our 565 gigatonnes CO2 limit in the atmosphere by 2030, all from raising animals for meat - now that is just plain wrong!  But a plant based diet sounds...so difficult and boring - NOT! This Earth Day, you can have the most environmentally conscious burgers at these selected restaurants!


ORGANIC KITCHEN



Address: 57 Fuxingxilu

Tel: 021-64183220

Price: RMB68

 

The Lentil Avocado Burger. If you have not been to the vegan game nights, then you probably were living under a rock! The lentil patty is as exotic as it gets - has yellow lentil, chimichurri sauce, caramelized onions, mint chutney and a hint of garam masala. <drool>. Decent portion and feels heavy with those herb laced fries. Definitely, environmentally conscious!

 

HAPPY BUDDHA



Address:

388 Shaanxi Nan Lu, 2FL (Daily 11am to 9pm)

280 Aomen Lu (Daily, 11am to 8pm)

From the 21day Vegan Challenge leaders is the "Big One Burger". This vegan burger is a beauty! A house made brown rice and beetroot patty topped with smoky maple tempeh bac'n, cashew blue cheese, and pickled cabbage, fresh lettuce and tomato, served on a toasted bun. Served with sweet potato chips.

 

GREEN VEGE CAFÉ

 


Address: 699 Zhongshan Nan Er Lu, touch Mall, 3FL

Tel: 6067 2555

Price: RMB58

 

This is an all vegan restaurant and known for it is high quality comfort food. This burger is a classic - mushroom, avocado, vegan mayo and comes with a side of fries. Unlike others, this one is not very heavy and is perfect for those who calorie count.

 

TRIBE ORGANIC

 


Address: 291 Changle Lu

Tel: 021 6093 2982

Price: RMB68

 

A newly opened chain, surprised all us vegans with their super vegan friendly menu. It is mostly beets but has red onion, red wine vinegar, red kidney beans, rice, parsley and arugula. Trust me, if you manage to eat the whole burger, you will not be able to move for 20 min. Comes with fries. Plus the restaurant ambience is really chill and super relaxed. Impressed.

 

DALIAH

 


Address: 408 Shanxi Bei Lu

Tel: 021 6288 8773

Price: RMB98

 

They celebrate food and weirdness but the burger is far from weird, it is simply spectacular! Our pick would be the Pulled Mushroom Burger that has all the good stuff - Eryngii mushroom, Avocado mash, coleslaw but there is one secret ingredient that sets it apart - pear chutney! This goes so well with the spicy fries it comes with! You have our permission to glutton!


SPECIAL MENTION


PURE & WHOLE

 


Address:

98 Yanping Lu (T: 021 5175 9822)

1376 Nanjing Xi Lu, shanghai Center (T: 021 6289 8316)

1378 Huamu Lu, Kerry Parkside (T: 021 5061 0618)

Hours: Daily, 11:30am to 10pm

Obviously not a burger. But it is blasphemous to talk about vegan burgers and not have Pure and Whole on our list. Recently, the restaurant has gone through some menu "changes" <eye roll> and some of vegan favorites have been unfortunate casualties. Fear not! They are working in setting things right and will be out with it soon! So, while their plant based burger is in vegan-limbo, here is one wrap that we recommend - the Arabian wrap - falafel, hummus, red onion, avocado, olives, sprouts, cashew cheese...should we say more?
