Gasometer Vi

11/11/2013: We're lamentable to study the closure of our dearest Gasometer.

October 23, 2011
On Lord's Day concluding calendar week nosotros shared a good daytime repast amongst adventures coming her way. We were also simply a petty excited to cheque out Gasometer's novel menu. It's real much a continuation of the Americana subject as well as heavy on the mock meat; the dearest vegan Southern-fried chicken burger as well as Buffalo tofu strips rest but there's as well as thus much to a greater extent than to distract 1 from revisiting them. Vegan as well as veganisable options are well-labelled as well as encompass almost of the menu, gluten-free options are less abundant but yet clearly stated. Michael, Toby as well as I split 3 novel meals for optimum taste-testing.

Toby started out amongst the chicken as well as waffles ($21), choosing the iceberg wedge amongst ranch dressing as well as grilled corn cob brushed amongst smoked garlic butter every bit his sides. I did non concord high hopes for this sugariness as well as savoury combo but was pleasantly surprised - the Southern-fried mock meat, waffles as well as syrup were a pretty tasty combination. That said, I can't imagine e'er polishing this off solo.

I ordered the BBQ pulled 'pork' sandwich ($20) amongst chips as well as slaw on the side. I barely recognised the slaw, to a greater extent than minced than shredded now. The chips are yet peachy (phew!). I was almost excited, though, to exam out this jackfruit-based 'pork'. Opinions are divided - it's a petty smoky, heavily sauced as well as very, real sweet. The bun is pretty sugariness as well as puffy too, adding to the effect. I liked this 'pork', though I wished it came amongst an extra contrasting filling - something fresher amongst a fleck of chew.

Michael's Reuben sandwich ($20) was the widespread favourite, a tower of faux pastrami between rye breadstuff slices, amongst a petty sauerkraut as well as Russian dressing. Another repast I couldn't e'er promise to defeat on my own. His sides of cornbread as well as greens were corporation if non inspiring.

Gasometer is going bigger as well as amend amongst every alteration. I love it, but my appetite is struggling to decease on upward amongst their super-sizing. It's likely fourth dimension I scaled dorsum to apps as well as zerts.
