I did some grocery shopping yesterday at Rachelle Bery on St- Laurent Blvd. I received a free 4 pack of the Natur-a S2 Mango Pineapple Soy Beverage. I am not sure if there is a minimum amount required to get this bonus product. I was in a bit of a daze and badly in need of lunch. After shopping I went to Aux Vivres and had their soup of the day and a small salad before running more errands and lugging my big bag of groceries along the way (filled with the beverage and also organic kale, spinach, romaine lettuce and some vegan vitamins).

In any case, I just had one and it was quite nice. It was filling but refreshing at the same time. I usually make my own smoothies and protein type drinks with Vega powders, but I could see myself having one of these when on the go.

New Generation Mango Pineapple Soy Fortified Beverage

315ml Serving: 180 Calories, 7g Fat, 23g Carbohydrate and 8g Protein

Ingredients:Filtered Water, Whole Organic Soybeans, Organic Evaporated Cane Juice, Sunflower Oil, Chicory Inulin (prebiotic), Natural Flavour, Calcium Carbonate, Sea Salt, Xantham Gum, Annatto, Vitamin A Palmitate, Sodium Ascorbate (Vitamin C), Riboflavin (B2), Vitamin D2, Vitamin B12, Thiamine (B1), Niacin (B3), Vitamin B6, Pantothenate (B5).

I am not sure what their Natural Flavour is and if its vegan. I have heard some wild and crazy things being included in this, but I would like to think a soy product such as this one would be vegetarian as it does include Vitamin D2 not D3.

This café features a gallery of photographic art and a seasonal vegetarian menu of desserts, coffees and teas. This summer there is an offering of vegan fudge and soy milkshakes. I had the vanilla shake and tasting of fudge. Both were delicious. The owner told me he will be making sandwiches in the fall with one being 100% vegan. The café is open until 6pm most days unless there is a live jazz show, then it is open into the evening.

Chuch shares the kitchen with the more upscale Chu Chai which is situated directly next door. Chuch is open for full menu service at lunch and at dinner. This restaurant also has an eat-in / take-out counter which is open as well during the hours of 2-5:30pm. It features a selection of simpler versions of their full menu. Many of their offerings are vegan, but do ask before to confirm. Like Chu Chai the focus is on fake meats in the Buddhist tradition. The ‘beef satay’ is amazing as is their ‘duck’ in red curry.
