Plant Junkie (at 226 Front St – steps away from the South Street Seaport), where bold flavors and creative twists prove that meat, dairy and eggs aren’t needed for a seriously satisfying meal is embracing Earth Month this April with a series of eco-conscious initiatives to promote sustainability and environmental responsibility:
- Free honey bee seed mix packets to customers with any in-store purchase, while supplies last to encourage planting wildflowers across New York City.
- Plant Junkie will also offer a 10% discount to anyone who visits the restaurant on a bike, skateboard, or scooter, to promote eco-friendly transportation options. This initiative encourages patrons to reduce their carbon footprint while enjoying delicious, sustainable, plant-based dishes.
Plant Junkie’s brand new brunch menu features a vibrant selection of savory and sweet options crafted to satisfy every craving. Start the day with a Sunrise Bowl or After Party Burrito, packed with scrambled tofu, vegan sausage, black beans, and crispy tater tots, finished with guacamole and chipotle aioli. For busy folks on the go, a handheld favorite, the Breaky Sandwich, delivers crispy tofu and vegan sausage on a soft bun. Those craving something lighter can enjoy the Avocado toast topped with alfalfa sprouts, pickled red onion, and everything bagel seasoning. Sweet tooths will love the Plant Powered Flapjacks, served with whipped cream and berries, or the ‘Milk’ Parfait, a creamy chia and coconut milk blend with homemade granola and fresh fruit. Complete your brunch with a refreshing Yogurt Fruit smoothie bursting with seasonal flavors. From morning fuel to midday feast, this brunch brings all the flavor—no meat, no dairy, no missing out!
Chef Hiranth Jayasinghe just launched the brunch menu this month and Plant Junkie is offering their new menu on Saturdays and Sundays from 11 am – 3:30 pm.
