by CHLOE Is The Newest Vegan Hot Spot in Toronto

Hi Prepsters

Yorkdale has just opened the fastest growing vegan burger chain, by CHLOE. The beautiful and extremely Instagram friendly restaurant is based out of New York, with locations in Boston, LA, Rhode Island, London, and now Toronto. All the items are plant-based, meaning they are meat, dairy, egg product free, and contain no saturated animal fats, cholesterol, artificial flavours, and/or preservatives. The by CHLOE. team is also committed to using organic, seasonal, and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.

The Food

The Classic Burger

What I like about this burger is that it isn’t trying to taste like meat. The tempeh-lentil-chia-walnut patty is hearty, slightly charred on the outside, and smooth on the inside. It’s toppedwith pickles, onions, beet ketchup, special sauce, all on a toasted potato bun.

Avocado Pesto Pasta

The Avocado-cashew pesto is flavourful and light, the grape tomatoes add some freshness to the dish, and the almond parm is tangy.

Poutine

Vegan’s everywhere should rejoice for this completely plant based poutine. The air-baked fries are topped with cheeze curds, which are somewhere between melt-y and creamy, and the best vegan gravy I have ever had.

Spicy Thai Salad

With shredded kale, chopped romaine, apricot-sriracha glazed tempeh, quinoa, crispy wontons, and peanut dressing. Out of all of the menu items we tried, this was by far, my brothers and my favourite dish. The salad was both hearty and refreshing, and the apricot-sriracha glazed tempeh was absolutely delicious. No seriously, this salad was the best salad I’ve ever had.

If you have a sweet tooth, by Chloe is the place to visit. he chocolate donut (pictured below) was thick, fudgy, and everything I could have ever dreamed about. The double chocolate chunk cookie was also incredible. The texture was chewy and soft and had a big chocolate flavour. Also, all the baked goods are made 100% in house.
