'Native Foods,' the vegan-friendly fast-casual restaurant with several locations across the United States, has added a 'Vegan Katsu Curry' meal to its 2022 menu for a limited time. Native Foods currently has locations in California, Oregon, Colorado, and Illinois, though it is expanding its locations list frequently. For example, the restaurant recently opened more locations across Colorado.
This new vegan menu item, the Katsu Curry, will be available beginning February 11th until February 25th. This item is a katsu-style vegan chicken served on top of jasmine rice. The vegan chicken can be substituted for a crispy cauliflower, though the meal already comes with a serving of broccoli. On top of this, the dish is coated in Native Foods' vegan 'Katsu Curry Sauce.' The price may vary by location, but the cost of this meal is listed as $12.75 USD on the brand's website.
