Actually, they use a Boca Burgers, not Yves.

Kim: yes, the thai basil tofu curry is quite tasty. If only the serving size was a wee bit smaller…

Since when do they make their own tempeh? Ever since they opened (until at least 3 weeks ago when I was there last), their “tempeh” is just a heated up Yves veggie burger.

They make their Own tempeh – oh!! I’ve been planning to ask them where I could finally just get the kind they use. Damn.

I love this place. I don’t think it looks ‘tatty’ at all – I think it’s quite lovely really.
And their dishes are complex and interesting, they’re filling enough, and the price is right – I think the word ‘simplicity’ is only relative to the over-produced fare at the likes of Earl’s, Cactus Club and Brown’s. And while both the Na’am and Greens & Gourmet have gotten, plain and simple, sloppy and complacent, the Dharma Kitchen’s simplicity is quite simply exquisite attention to detail.

Is that it for your blog then? No updates for a couple of months.

Oh my god, I am now incredibly hungry for a Dharma Dude Bowl. I grew up eating a lot of potatoes, so a bowl of potatoes topped with tempeh and veggies and one of their amazing sauces is a great meal. A lovely understated restaurant, Dharma Kitchen doesn’t get the respect and credit it deserves.

Yay! Great review! I was just there last week and it never disappoints me. I was “craving Dharma” and had their spicy rice bowl and banana tapioca pudding. The pudding, btw, tastes really, really good when it’s cold and gelatinous after being in the fridge. My bf had the tofu in black bean sauce and rice, which is his favourite there. I also love their miso soup, and I find the potato bowls to be very interesting (only had that once so far). So many choices there, and yes, it’s one of the very few 100% vegan restaurants in town, so it should be patronized to support such a business. Dharma serves a certain craving of good, wholesome comfort food full of vegetables, tofu and grains that can’t be met much anywhere else in Vancouver.
