V Rating: VV Lost in North Ryde? Dining at the massive Macquarie Centre shopping complex isn’t your style? If you make it to the Ranch Hotel, you won’t have the breadth of choice of your carnivorous companions but the good news is that you won’t go hungry. Faced with a hotel-style blackboard menu which boasts around a hundred choices, it might take a while to locate the small section devoted to the vegetarian options. There you’ll find a vegetarian quiche and chips ($12.90), rice noodles, vegetables and tofu ($13.50), mushroom stir fry with tofu and rice ($13.50), vegetarian lasagne with salad and chips ($14.50) and “grilled zucchini, capsicum, rocket, roma tomato and eggplant on herb roccini” ($10.90). You won’t find a veggie burger, but there is a choice of vegetarian sauces on pasta ($9.50 small, $13.50 large), vegetarian nachos ($16.80 large) and the trusty salad plate ($7.90). There were no vegetarian entrees on the board. Vegans can rest easy that they will also have a few options to choose from. I ordered the lasagne which was well sized, if cheesy. It was hard to get excited about certainly filled the gap. Verdict: Not a haven for vegetarians but it could have been worse. |
