Their menu includes vegan shrimp, large prawns, crab balls, drumsticks, fish cakes, fish, dry soy "duck," and various other soy-based items.

I had been struggling to find vegetarian 'fish' products, but was happy to discover that they are offered here. Although the store has a fishy smell, the vegetarian freezer section is clearly labeled. Additionally, there are canned and jarred fried wheat gluten balls in the canned vegetable aisle. The staff is friendly and efficient at the checkout. It is convenient to have access to vegetarian options without having to travel into the city.
