Green and Go at Green Bar Cafe

 Never thought vegan could taste this good. Seriously...

Green Bar Cafe offers their own take on vegan cuisine with a wide range of healthy snacks, deli-style sandwiches and wraps for satisfying meals without the guilt. It's green and go...at Green Bar Cafe.

Located in Westgate Center at Alabang, Green Bar Cafe takes vegan cuisine to a whole new and flavorful level with its inventive signature hand-held meals. And it's always a good time to try and experience something new and different. And healthy too...

I've always enjoyed pulled pork and coleslaw, and this one hits the spot without the guilt. The BBQ Tofu Sandwich (P 180), with sweet, smoky and tangy glazed pulled tofu topped with creamy and crunchy coleslaw laid on a soft whole wheat roll, is one flavorful sandwich. Each bite delivers contrasting textures with the crunch of the coleslaw and the soft pulled tofu, and the pulled tofu really does pull off all the familiar and comforting notes of traditional barbecue pork's juicy flavors. Piled high, this is a serious sandwich. And the best part? It's even good for you.  

Then, there's Green Bar Cafe's popular Burritos, a complete meal in itself...

The Cuban Burrito (P 280), a hefty yet healthy burrito stuffed with red rice, black beans, fried sweet plantains, spicy seitan sausage, pico de gallo, and chimichurri offers rich flavors with a Cuban vibe. The spicy seitan sausage is tempered by the sweetness of the plantains for complex yet balanced flavors. Each big bite offers layers of distinct flavors blending seamlessly for a satisfying meal.

I always thought vegetarian meals would only satisfy you for a few hours at most, but this burrito is filling, enough to last you the day or until the next meal. But there's more...

Start your day with Green Bar Cafe's signature Breakfast Burrito (P 300), with soft scrambled tofu, roasted potatoes, savory and sweet seitan sausages, and baby spinach draped in a creamy hollandaise sauce. All you need to start the day right, wrapped in this filling burrito. The texture of the scrambled tofu drapes all the other ingredients, punctuated by the sharp notes of the seitan sausage. Breakfast in a burrito and healthy starts...works for me.     

The wittingly named Hail Seitan (P 350), Green Bar Cafe's NYC style hand-held, generously loaded with crisp yet tender roast beef style seitan, sweet and smoky caramelized onions, nutty cashew cream, and vegan mayo on a 6" focaccia, is yet another savory option. The seitan mimics the savory notes of roast beef, adding a flavorful punch with each bite capped by the caramelized onions to complete the experience. The cashew cream and vegan mayo add even more layers of flavors combining for vibrant notes. The rich flavors make you forget that this is healthy, with no meat at all.   

Cap your feast with the Chocolate Hill Cupcake (P 100), Green Bar Cafe's homage to the country's famed Chocolate Hills, with its rich and dark chocolate cupcake topped with sweet and salty peanut butter cream icing; and the Havana Cupcake (P 100), a moist vanilla cupcake with a generous filling of fluffy whipped coconut cream and topped with coconut sin leche icing and sprinkled with coconut bits. It's the perfect ending to a healthy yet flavorful and satisfying meal at Green Bar Cafe. Looking for a healthy yet satisfying meal? Go green...at Green Bar Cafe.
