» Weird Fish brings back Buffalo Girls and other vegan old favorites
Looks like Weird Fish was missing the vegan love, and decided to court us back. Their new menu brings back the old favorites: deep fried dill pickles, tacos with mango salsa and classic fish & chips (sub seitan for both), their internet-famous buffalo girls, and more. Brunch is still gone, for vegans and meat eaters alike.
Anyone been by lately? Let us know how their new/old vegan options stand up.

Weird Fish’s fried seitan recipe! »
If we can’t have it at the restaurant, at least they gave us the recipe. I will refrain from further comment because I don’t want the internet police to rape me with their billy club of street justice but WHO WANTS TO HAVE A FRY PARTY!? That was rhetorical, obvs.
Mix in one big bowl:
- 1/4 cup lemon pepper
- 1/4 cup Spike seasoning
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 5 cups vegetable stock
- 5 cups water
Mix and separate into four separate bowls, Then add:
- 3 1/2 cups vital wheat gluten to each bowl (14 cups total)
Mix in 3 1/2 cups of water to each bowl and mix into a firm ball or loaf. In a large pot, boil:
- 10 cups water
- 4 cups veg stock
- 1 cup veg base powder.
Simmer the loaves on the stove; keep seitan covered with liquid, adding veggie stock as it boils. Stir at least once every 20 minutes to prevent sticking and burning. Cook for one hour and 10 minutes. Cool and wrap in plastic.
BAM!!!! Kevin at Uptown Almanac made these and professes them to be the bomb. That kid is a skinny white dude so I think he knows from food, OKAY?
