Brother Bon - Your Local Vegan Restaurant in Northcote

Brother Bon is always a pleasure to visit. All the food was delicious, though I do think some aspects of the portions could be larger, such as the sauce for the lemon chicken and the satay skewers (a bit more would be nice because they’re so yummy). The satay skewers were delicious and I liked that there was some additional veggies on the skewers. Maybe 4 skewers would be better than 3, especially when sharing. The lemon chicken was amazing, I loved how the chicken was made from tofu instead of a wheat gluten or something similar (though that would be nice too) this just felt lighter to eat which I enjoyed. The crème brûlée was such a fun thing to try, being vegan I’ve never actually had it before. The custard was creamy and decadent, the sugar was wafer thin and perfectly crisp. I do think perhaps it could be served without the cream and more fruits, as it’s all very sweet together but that is my personal preference. There are no faults on the iced matcha pistachio latte- I crave that drink literally every day. Service was wonderful, all the waitresses and waiters are so lovely. All in all it was a great dinner 10/10, we will be back to try more!

My food was fine but very average which I wouldn’t complain about if it weren’t so expensive! $30 for a very mediocre burger ain’t it. Also very few gluten free options which was a bit surprising for me with this style of restaurant, didn’t even have gluten free buns as an option. Overall fine but not worth it, used to be way better :(
