Springy egg noodles wok-tossed with golden tofu, crisp vegetables and a savoury Thai sauce — our go-to plate for vegetarians and anyone who wants comfort food without the meat. Generous, filling and ready in minutes.
Vegetarian diners in the West End know this plate well. We fry the tofu until the edges are golden and the centre stays soft, then toss it through egg noodles with onions, cabbage, carrot and green onion in a light savoury sauce that coats every strand without drowning it.
It is one of the best-value meatless meals near Downtown Winnipeg: a big plate, plenty of protein and enough flavour that nobody at the table feels like they are eating the ‘vegetarian option’. Add chili flakes at the table if you want more heat.
The tofu is fried separately so it keeps its texture, the vegetables go into a screaming-hot wok so they stay crisp, and everything comes together with the noodles at the last moment. Tell us if you would like it without egg noodles — we can build the same dish with rice noodles instead.
Round the meal out with Thai spring rolls to start and a shared green curry (we can make it with tofu) or a plate of Thai fried rice. Check the full Thai menu for more vegetarian-friendly Thai dishes.
