Offen am Sonntag -leckeres Essen

Wir hatten einen Tagesaufenthalt in Coimbra am Sonntag, entsprechend waren viele Restaurants geschlossen.
Wir entschieden uns für Asiatisch.
Das Essen war lecker, ich hatte Chamucha vegetais (2€) und als Vorspeise und "spicy" Rahmen con Dumpling für (9,90€). Für meinen schärfe gewohnten Gaumen eine gute Wahl.
In der Karte waren vegetarische Optionen markiert, vegane fehlten allerdings. Die Rahmen gab es Beispielsweise mit Ei - also vorher nachfragen.
Die Bedienung war freundlich, also eigentlich müsste ich 4 Sterne geben.
Kleiner Wehrmutstropfen: Ich hatte zweimal das Gefühl, dass sich ein kleines Stück Hühnerfleisch in meiner Brühe befand, war am Ende also unsicher, ob es wirklich ein vegetarisches Gericht war.
Leider habe ich mich auch nicht getraut nachzufragen - vielleicht war es auch etwas anderes.. wegen des schlechten Gefühls aber "nur" 3 Sterne.

Pros: Gute vegetarische Auswahl, Freundliche Bedienung, Leckeres Essen

Cons: Vegane Optionen nicht sofort erkennbar

Vegetarian and Vegan Options in Coimbra!

En route back to Lisbon from Porto (by train), we decided to make a pit-stop in Coimbra for a bit of sightseeing and picture-taking. After a couple of hours of walking around town, it was time for some refueling before continuing our train ride home. Being plant-based eaters, there were very few options available to us here to begin with; arriving early (before noon) didn't help and narrowed our options down to a local Burger King (which would've been our last option out of desperation, since they do have an Impossible Whopper). After a bit more walking, we stumbled upon Chai Asian Food and from the looks of their storefront menu, it appeared they offered several vegan options! YAY!!! The restaurant was literally just opening their doors when we were reading the window menu. After we inquired from the gentleman opening up, he was kind to show us what would suit our non-dairy/non-animal diets. (It was either this or BK! It was a no-brainer!) We were parched from all the walking, so a couple pints of brew was first in-order. For a starter, I went with some fresh rolls (with came with a sweet/sour dipping sauce). The rolls were super fresh and tasty! For a main, I went with a vegan noodle and dumpling soup (asking him to make it very spicy). The meal was so satisfying with a nice kick of heat. When all was said and done, not only was our lunch cheap, but our overall experience at Chai Asian Food was two-BIG thumbs up...!!! 😄

Pros: Food, Friendly Owner/Service, Lively Square

Cool & Good

Food 4/5
Price 5/5
Service 5/5
Atmosphere 4/5
Fanciness: Low
Cleanliness: Moderate

P.S. I mistakenly ordered "traditional tea" that contained animal milk. It was not specified in the menu that it contained milk but I didn't ask in the first place so it's my fault also.
