The perfect weekend. My bestie of 20+ years came to visit. Chats and giggles shared over plenty of wine. An inspirational eve at the Queen E Theatre with Eckhart Tolle. Sunny strolls around Gastown. And a (long anticipated) lunch date at MeeT.
Of course, we started things off with a fresh cocktail to cheers to a fabulous weekend. MeeT’s list of cocktails is fresh and crafty, including house-made infusions and syrups with organic sugar. We decided on a couple Lemon Lavender Fizz (gin, lavender syrup, lemon juice, bitters, topped with soda) – our server suggested we looked like a couple gals that would enjoy a less-sweetened version (we must look badass like that). Her advice was on point.
After an impeccable boozy recommendation, I, in good faith, asked her to surprise me with her entree of choice.
Out came the infamous Mac N’ Cheez Burger (house smoked burger topped with mac n’ cheez, pickled jalapenos, vegan chipotle mayo, crispy onion rings).


YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Bestie had The Lovely bowl (authentic almond satay sauce, shredded carrots, organic brown rice, marinated organic tofu, wilted organic kale, broccoli, roasted red pepper, toasted coconut bacon) which she enjoyed – and recently tried to re-create at home.
Capped off all the ooey-gooey-cheezyness with another round of celebratory sips. This time, a couple Pineapple Basil (gin, pineapple juice, fresh lime, basil). My favourite! So fresh and delicate with a boozy, zesty kick.

If you’re in Vancity, visiting MeeT on Main or Gastown is a MUST. From healthy salad bowls to indulgent plant-based comfort food to decadent desserts, this is the place to MeeT with vegan and non-vegan friends alike.
Had so much fun with you!! I can’t wait to go back to this place.
