Tofu Vegan is a completely plant based Chinese restaurant at 28 North End Road in Golders Green. Its menu draws on China's long tradition of cooking with grains, vegetables, tofu and mushrooms, while also using bean proteins to recreate familiar meat and fish textures. The result is designed for vegans and vegetarians as well as diners who usually eat meat.
Starters introduce the kitchen's bold seasoning through salt and Sichuan pepper tofu, mushroom spring rolls and smacked cucumber with garlic and sesame. Dim sum brings another range of textures, with dumplings, wontons and other handmade bites accompanied by aromatic sauces. Soups and cold dishes offer gentler or fresher contrasts before the main plates.
Regional influences appear across the hot dishes, from vegan mapo tofu and dry fried green beans to Cantonese sweet and sour chicken style pieces. Gong bao tofu combines chilli, savoury sauce and peanuts, while king oyster and shiitake mushrooms add richness to stir fried tofu. Peking duck style dishes, cumin lamb alternatives and twice cooked fish substitutes show how the menu adapts classic preparations.
Fried noodles, steamed rice and vegetable dishes make it easy to build a substantial shared meal. Diners can choose different levels of chilli and ask about gluten free versions of selected dishes when ordering. With fresh daily preparation, generous portions and flavours spanning Sichuan, Cantonese and northeastern Chinese cooking, Tofu Vegan offers much more than a simple collection of substitutes.
