We bring been occasionally hitting upwardly The Cornish Arms on Sydney Road for lazy junk-food dining together with decided nosotros should lastly weblog it again. They seem to tweak their carte du jour semi-regularly, but hold a substantial listing of vegan pub nutrient for those of us who are nostalgic for parmas or chicken burgers. It's heavy on the mock meat - there's dishes similar the mixed grill (faux duck, facon, meatballs together with pate with salad together with bread, $21), a mock chicken burrito ($19), a duck-based steak sandwich ($19) together with a banh mi (starring bbq pork seitan together with mushroom meatballs, $20) amongst a couplet of non-mock options (Massaman curry $17, portabello mushroom burger, $17). Let's live clear: this is non the house to become if you're afterward something fresh together with salubrious - your repast is going to live huge, it's going to live fried together with it's going to live salty. That's simply the agency things are at The Cornish.
I completely embraced the mock-meat subject together with ordered the double-down burger ($20, based on the KFC abomination of the same name). The uncomplicated (and horrifying) thought behind the double downwards is the replacement of the rule burger bun with chicken patties. So the Cornish double downwards is 2 gigantic crumbed pieces of mock chicken surrounding a piece of facon, unopen to Lycopersicon esculentum together with unopen to melted Cheezly. With sauce.
It's clearly a ridiculous meal, but non without its oily charms - the chicken pieces bring a tasty crumb together with are pretty decent gluten-based mock meat, the facon is first-class together with the whole sense is gleefully gluttonous. The cursory slaw doesn't add together much inward the agency of veggies, together with the wedges (while excellent) are simply to a greater extent than fried goodness. The double downwards won't live for everybody, but it definitely won itself a fan inward me.
Cindy decided to sample the fish together with chips, having heard that they'd worked on the batter since our Occupie Fitzroy together with first trip.
As yous tin see, they actually bring - these are at in 1 lawsuit to a greater extent than batter than fish. Crispy together with non also oily (while clearly having simply been deep-fried), the batter coats 3 biggish chunks of tofu-based fish, with most of the fishy flavor actually coming via the vegan tartare sauce. It was also much for Cindy to eat, but she looked pretty content when she gave up.
The Cornish is a trusty vegan-friendly pub inward Brunswick that volition tike yous upwardly unopen to mock meat together with assist yous recapture fond memories of one-time schoolhouse pub food. The prices are a combat steep, but it seems vegans volition pay proficient coin to places that await afterward them - it's almost ever full. There's a neat make of beer on tap, a prissy courtyard together with regular bands/entertainment (of varying lineament it must live said). Our sense of the service inward the past times has been upwardly together with down, but things ran pretty smoothly on this visit.
