What’s great about Greens is that they afford “genuine lacto vegetarian cuisine” at a fraction of the price, doing away with notions that going vegetarian is a luxury. They also serve well-loved Filipino dishes with a vegetarian flair, meaning it’s not intimidating, and affordable! It’s an immediate comfort food place for vegetarians in the Metro, especially in the North.
