Chutneys Indian Grill - Vegan Options

Chutneys is a restaurant where you place your order, and then modify it by choosing the veggies and sauce and toppings from the bounty in front of you to make a dish that suits your mood. Picture Subway with Indian inspired food. We happened to arrive at the Chutneys in Langley on their official grand opening day and it was a little chaotic. Still, given a little more time (I didn't want to be holding up the line) I wouldn't have built something much different.

The new Chutneys is located in the maze between Willowbrook and 200th. We ordered everything vegan that we could find on their menu, to go.

A couple of Samosas that were reasonably priced and filled with potatoes and veggies. Pretty tasty but no big surprises here.

The Build Your Own Bowl option gives one some flexibility and its easy to achieve vegan! You start with a grain choice, and move on to a protein (we chose garbanzo beans for the bowl), choose a sauce (3 of the 4 are vegan) and grab some veggies for toppings.  In the interests of keeping the opening day line moving, we left most of the choices to the CIG staff and we were content with the results.

We followed the same process with the Build Your Own Burroti only we chose tofu as the protein. The results again were pretty tasty. You really can't go wrong with the build your own options which also include salad or a plate.

For some reason we ordered Masala Fries which didn't really do well on the trip back to Aldergrove. You should eat these right away. Still we liked the seasoning.

I don't expect that it will always be this busy. To their credit, they were well staffed for the opening but space behind the counter seemed to be at a premium. They were quite willing and able to ensure that our order was all plant-based.

For opening Day, the Bowl and Burroti were only $7 each which is insane but they are very nicely priced all the time (I think less than $12 for the Burroti). There are a few tables and a front counter if you choose to eat in.  Indian flavours and vegan choices will make this one of our top fast food go-tos in Langley!
