No vegan options on the menu

The description is not accurate - this restaurant is vegetarian NOT vegan and has not given thought to allowing vegan alternatives within their chaap dishes. When I went I asked if they had ANYTHING vegan and they said no - everything had dairy in it.

Though this chain has soy meat alternatives and everything looks delicious, they include dairy (milk, yoghurt and butter) in all their dishes. I asked if they could change to vegan products instead so there could be at least one chaap dish for vegans and they said no. Seems to be because it is part of a chain and/or they don’t understand how easy it would be/how prevalent and tasty vegan milk products are. They just said chaap has dairy in it as if it was a fact out of their control. They are losing out on half their market (ie only vegetarians and nothing for vegans). Unfortunately, I can never dine there though I work close by and this would be super convenient. Time to modernize and make a few dishes with vegan milk products.

Pros: Convenient location , Meals look tasty (if only they had vegan chaap)

Cons: No vegan chaap dishes, Not open to considering how to add a vegan option, Animal products in all the chaap dishes
