Hip City Veg- Philly Seitan Steak

Here's another review of Hip City Veg (127 S. 18th Street). This time I got the Philly Steak and Carrot Ginger Lemonade. The portion side of the steak was huge.  The Philly Steak came with pulled steak, grilled onions, mushroom, lettuce, tomato, and organic ketchup on a long roll. The pieces of seitan were a little on the chunkier side for me which made it hard for me to chew. There were alot of liquids coming from the sandwich.  Not sure, if the seitan was frozen and defrosted to cook which in turn produced alot of liquid or if the liquids were coming from the vegetables. The seasoning was good, though. The texture was also good. It was firm and tender.Overall, I thought the steak was okay. I think the excessive amount of liquid dripping from my sandwich made it less appealing. To be honest, I prefer the "chicken" at Hig City Veg more. I also think other places' "steaks" are better such as one from The Abbaye. As for the Carrot Ginger Juice, it was similar to the Green Lemonade in that it was was fresh and refreshing. You can taste the lemon, ginger, and carrot.
