The Carvers Meatball Sandwich ($16) serves @omnipork meatballs dipped in black pepper sauce in a banh mi-style bun with greens and a side of fries. As a heavy meat consumer, I can sort of tell this is not meat due to the overall texture, but yet somehow I don't really mind; when you have every component together, it still more or less manages to feel like a complete sub which I quite enjoyed!

The Carvers Xtreme Meatballs ($16) serves cheese-stuffed meatballs using a 'Meat Alternative' pork product from @beyondmeat over mashed potatoes, cream sauce and greens. I do feel that when the meatballs are stuffed, it does feel a little more convincing. Flavours can be further experimented with this though as I felt the seasoning could do with a bit more flavour. Despite that, the meatballs go great with the mash! ๐Ÿ˜

As an event-only special, I got to try a Meatball Burger which makes use of @omnipork patties as well. A shame it is not on the menu, because the meatballs here definitely stood out the most with their tangy and savoury flavour, coming the closest to what I'd expect of the real deal. Perhaps a recipe for the future? ๐Ÿ˜Œ

With more F&B concepts, especially meat-heavy ones like CarversX (Asia Square 1 Food Garden, Bayfront) introducing vegan-friendly options, this allows for more inclusivity for our vegan friends and flexibility in dining out with a mixed group of vegans and meat consumers!

Thank you @greenmonday_official for having me at the event and @carvers_x for the food! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป
