Seriously.... it's not only vegans and gluten-free seekers that come to Hibiscus in the market, everyone enjoys the wholesome freshly prepared dishes that come from the back of the kitchen.
In my travels around the city - Hibiscus throws down the best value for quality dishes. Personally, I have a good handful of close friends who swear by this cafe - mainly vegans, but it's not to say it's only for "vegans". Not only is it animal-cruelty free, but it's tapping into that new market to combat the gluten allergies - it's running rampant.

The FOOD:
So, what do you order at a Vegan resto?
Really - do you need meat?
No.... the food is so deliciously seasoned and dressed that you wouldn't be craving for meat.
We ordered the Salad and Soup combo - best of the best. With so many Cold Salads prepared daily, you're bound to try something that will blow your mind. In this case; a simple carrot salad that was dressed to perfection.

The Basics:
Machine: Wega
Grinder: Unknown
Beans: Espresso Blend (Dark Roasted)
Composition: Unknown
Roasters: Just us Coffee
Located: Wolfville, NS
Verdict: Heavy, earthy tastes. Some Robusta giving it that pale brown cream, too much lemon sour acidity for me.
Just Us Coffee Roasters, are all about Fair-Trade, it's kensington market. Of Course Hibiscus would be conscious of that aspect. Canadian Roasters. Good ON you!
Sometimes you just don't know where to lock your bike - over some kids bike totally works!
Happy Espresso Adventures.
