My visit to P.F. Chang’s was a long time coming. Granted, the timing could have been better, considering I had made a decision to eat only vegan food for the entire month of March. While this meant that I missed out on several bite-worthy dishes, the chef and P.F. Chiang himself designed several vegan-friendly options to kill any FOMO one might experience during such a challenge. Vegan friends and readers take note!

P.F. Chang’s Montreal – Menu & Media Review

We’ve all seen lettuce wraps on the internet, and have surely been curious to Pinterest our own version from sheer curiosity. Regardless of your home chef skills and existing tastings at other foodie joints, if you haven’t tried P.F. Chang’s Montreal version – you haven’t lived. Seen here is the vegan alternative that I sampled – to keep in tandem with the 30 day vegan challenge, and boy was it tasty! And the breaded shrimp were somewhat godly from what my fellow peers expressed (mostly communicated through moans and verbiage that indicated a savoury moment of pure bliss).

P.F. Chang's Montreal General Tao Tofu — The vegan alternative to the Mongolian Beef dish was more Gen Tao Tofu. Disclaimer: this was the BEST General Tao tofu with broccoli I’ve ever had. Hands down.

The menu was divided into small plates and main entrées
