Vegans enjoy burgers even if they don’t eat meat, so we sampled offerings from eateries such as Kind Kitchen, Veggie SF and Loving Nature to find a winner

Burgers are something I never stopped loving after going vegan.

This probably rings true for most plant-based eaters, too. I often get asked: “If you’re vegan, why do you continue to eat foods that resemble their meat counterparts?”

It’s simple: I didn’t stop eating meat because I didn’t like the taste of it. I stopped eating meat because I didn’t want to contribute to the cruelty and environmental devastation it causes.

Luckily in Hong Kong, there’s an abundance of vegan burgers – so many, in fact, that it was hard to choose only 10 to review.

With the famous Beyond Burger and Impossible Burger having already launched in Hong Kong and featured on many menus, it’s quite easy to enjoy these “mock meat” burgers.

For this list, however, I chose one Beyond Burger and one Impossible Burger, instead favouring places that create their own home-made vegan patties. I rated them on three categories: taste, presentation and value.

The Beyond Meat burger, served at Hemingway’s in Discovery Bay, is available in many restaurants in Hong Kong.
