Badminton and Vegetarian Dinner

My friends and I went to play badminton up in Richmond Hill a few weeks ago. It was at a place on 16th, west of the 404. We booked the court for an hour and played doubles. I have to say, I haven't played in awhile. But it was fun. I do enjoy it.

Afterwards we went to grab dinner at a vegetarian restaurant on Highway 7 and West Beaver Creek. My friend, Gabe, invited his co-worker, Yatin, out. He's vegetarian. So that's why we decided to give this restaurant a try (unfortunately I can't remember the name of it).

I'm not sure what I was expecting out of this particular place, but it wasn't this. I thought they'd just have a lot of vegetable dishes like Chinese broccoli on rice or something.

Instead they had various dishes with tofu shaped like different kinds of meat. There was tofu that looked like beef, tofu that looked like chicken, tofu that looked like pork... you get the idea.

Now, even though the tofu resembled meat, it didn't taste anything like it. I really didn't understand why they even tried. The concept was completely foreign to me. Is this something vegetarians actually like?

Anyway, I can't see myself coming back for a return visit. It's just a little too strange for me.
