• A tad heavy on processed soy, but otherwise great

This is definitely worth the walk away from Vieux Quebec. (In fact, I am not aware that you can even find vegan food inside Vieux Quebec, though you can find it a bit closer than this.) Unique among Quebec City offerings, Restaurant Zen offers fresh, perfectly spiced Asian fusion meals at a reasonable price and in a very peaceful, nice environment. The tea is also excellent, and they have coffee if you lean that way. I would encourage Restaurant Zen to do a bit of experimenting with less processed soy, as a menu that relied less heavily on isolated soy protein would add to the zen experience. As it was, we found a good seitan dish, as well as a curry that my failure to ask specific questions about caused to arrive with soy chunks in addition to vegetables. This was my fault entirely, and I admit that they tasted good, as did absolutely everything else.
