On World Vegetarian Day, celebrated last Thursday, Hard Rock Cafe Malta began serving new vegetarian offerings. The menu features a selection of 25 meatless options, including a variety of vegetarian burgers, wraps, salads and juices.
These include a quinoa burger; a potato, chickpea and spinach burger; a spiced tofu and black bean wrap; a grilled vegetable and halloumi wrap; and a roasted root vegetables and kale salad.
“With an international movement towards a more plant-based diet, the demand for vegetarian dining has continued to grow,” said Antonio Bautista, senior vice president of Franchise Operations for Hard Rock International. “Hard Rock Cafe drew inspiration from global and regional cuisine to develop menu items vegetarians and meat lovers alike will enjoy.”
The new extended drinks menu features nutritious drink options such as beetroot, orange and ginger; kale and apple; and pear, cucumber and kale juices.
Vegetarian Awareness Month aims to spread awareness of vegetarianism and the benefits of a meat-free diet. What began as World Vegetarian Day has blossomed into a month-long celebration of vegetarianism that involves educational events and festivities.
