Tracing its roots in America, VeganBurg has been a smash hit ever since it landed in Singapore in 2010. A popular burger joint among vegans here, its mouth-watering menu breaks the stereotype of typical burgers and transforms them into 100 per cent plant-based goodness.

The Hainanese Chickenless Burg (a Singapore Special) is made with a home-seasoned and grilled soy protein patty filled with veggies and finished with a generous dollop of homemade chilli sauce, ginger sauce, and vegan dark chicken rice sauce. The Avocado Beetroot burger is its bestseller, containing GMO-free plant-protein patty with fresh avocado and garden veggies.
