The mushroom chorizo is firm and doesn\u2019t have that distinct mushroom taste. Cumin is heavily used, drowning out the taste of paprika, which means this dish more pungent than spicy. It&#8217;s also not as salty or oily as traditional pork chorizo. The shawarma tastes good on its\u00a0own but if you&#8217;re not into middle-eastern fares,\u00a0 you can use any of the three dips that come with the dish (vegan chips, hot sauce, and garlic mayonnaise).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25996\" src=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/10\/The-Emerson.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/10\/The-Emerson.jpg 800w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/10\/The-Emerson-290x194.jpg 290w, https:\/\/primer.com.ph\/food\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2018\/10\/The-Emerson-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><em>The Emerson (Php 495)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">New to the place and don\u2019t know what to order? Go for their best-seller, <strong>The Emerson (Php 495)<\/strong>. This is the lentil-mushroom version of meatloaf. It\u2019s tightly-packed, much like the real thing but becomes really loose once you cut into it. Again, it doesn&#8217;t have the distinct mushroom taste. To be honest, if you&#8217;re used to eating Filipino food, this dish may come across as a little bland. The sour and salty tang of the zucchini-aubergine ratatouille more than makes up for it, though. It\u2019s large enough for at least two people to share, meaning you can order more vegan dishes!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Vegan food doesn\u2019t have to be short on flavor and Susi is proof that it can be done!
