Globally Local recently announced the launch of its authentic, vegan 'Greek Fries.' The company is currently only in Ontario but hopes to expand internationally soon.
Globally Local is noted for being the first ever 24-hour vegan drive-thru restaurant. It was co-founded by Vasiliki and James McInnes. Vasiliki grew up in a Greek-Canadian family and was able to bring her knowledge to the chef's table to help create an authentic, vegan delicacy.
The Greek Fries are completely plant-based made in a nut-free facility. All products are made in-house ensuring quality and flavor. The fries are loaded with 'cheeze' sauce, gyro 'meat.' tomatoes, red onion, and tzatziki. This savory meal is great for consumers looking for a QSR vegan meal that is styled after traditional Greek cuisine.
