VegKC - The Corner Mexican Restaurant Meetup

VegKC The Corner Mexican Restaurant Meetup!
📍 Location will be at the Grandview restaurant.

🍴ABOUT THE VENUE
They offer a wide variety of unusual vegan Mexican dishes — not just substitutions, but traditional regional recipes adapted with house‑made vegan ingredients.

The restaurant describes itself as:
“More than just a restaurant, we are a tradition… dedicated to sharing Mexico’s rich culinary heritage using recipes perfected over generations.”

This isn’t Americanized Tex‑Mex — expect authentic Mexican street‑food classics such as huaraches, tlacoyos, pambazos, cactus, squash blossoms, and handmade tortillas.

They’ve gone all‑in on vegan offerings, crafting their own house‑made vegan cheeses and a wide range of authentic Mexican street‑food–style vegan fillings.

Their vegan protein options — listed on the menu as ‘your vegan option’ — include squash blossoms, mushroom ‘rinds,’ soy chorizo, soy asada, soy pastor, soy birria, soy ground, and more.

🍲 MENU EXAMPLES

• Huarache Oval shaped handmade tortilla, black beans, your vegan option, lettuce, almond sour cream, vegan cheese, prickly pear cactus and avocado.
• Plato loco Soy asada, soy chorizo, cactus, tofu, rice, black beans, lettuce, tomato, guacamole, chili, refried onions and 3 handmade tortillas on the side.
