The Greek sandwich at Carrotstick & Craving Restaurant is a Vegan Month Special, a collaboration with abillion & onlyeg.
The Menu
========
I love the way Carrotstick & Craving gives recognition to their partners on its menu. abillion & Onlyeg 100% plant based logos were printed after The Greek, and a special mention of Nut Culture for its vegan cheese in The Greek. I just feel so good inside…
The Plating
=========
I really love the flat plate The Greek is served on, round & white. I feel a sense of calmness in the roundness of the plate.
The pesto sauce, green from the Basil leaves & golden from the olive oil, beautifully surrounded The Greek, elevating the plating like a piece of Art.
When The Greek is being served, the sandwich stood out right away. The pesto sauce was spread on top of the Sourdough bread, instead of being hidden underside. A style that is unique & eye catching.
The vegan cheese, bell peppers & caramelized onions are presented in a way that they are spilling out of the sandwich & some on the plate itself. It wasn’t as neat & compact as a sandwich would be. Yet, its imperfection in its own is prefect!
Dining at Carrotsticks
================
The ambience of Carrotsticks communicates a sense of peacefulness & calmness. The soft warm lightings, the soft music, the white tiles & little pots of plants on the shelves & tables, convey a very deep relaxing atmosphere.
I could see much thoughts have been put into the menu. Many of the dishes & drinks are very healthy, light & nutritious. I feel really good inside.
The Greek
========
The Greek is a sandwich with 5 main ingredients:
1) Onlyeg Patties: The colour is spot on. Special thought has put to brown the base of the patties which right away gives a very close texture and taste of a real egg omelette. I am very thankful that Onlyeg has left out the sulphur taste of the real egg.
2) Eggplant 🍆: The chef has definitely aced this. The eggplant is sliced very thinly horizontally and cooked perfectly. The softness and the smoothness of the eggplant is heavenly!
3) Peppers: Bell peppers of red & yellow brought lots of colours to the sandwich. Green bell peppers are actually unripe. Yellow & red bell peppers are mature & packed with more nutrients. A lot of thoughts have been put into to make The Greek a healthy sandwich for everyone!
4) Caramelised onions: I am so thankful that the onions are sliced thinly and caramelised. The rawness & strong flavour of the onions are greatly reduced making this so much palatable.
5) vegan cheese: I am so thankful Carrotsticks uses vegan cheese from Nut Culture. I love Nut Culture cheese. They are made with really good ingredients.
Lastly, the sourdough bread, the one that supports & rests on top. They taste so so good. The sourness that comes through is so distinctive & welcoming. I love the crunchiness of the bread too. The sound is like music to my ears…
Put all together…a Masterpiece!
Price of The Greek
==============
S$19 for a full hearty meal! Totally worth its price tag.
What Is There After The Greek
=======================
The Greek will take its leave from the menu after the Vegan month which ends on 30 Nov. I wasn’t feeling any sadness… in fact, I am already planning my next visit! I love the food. I feel so healthy, peaceful & calm just being at Carrotsticks
