I recall when Evergreen was first opened in Karachi. It was delivery-based only with the most delicious, healthy sandwiches I had ever eaten. Since the product was a premium one, the prices naturally matched the quality and I preferred not to pay that price. I did review it though, so you can check out my review of Evergreen from 2015
here.
When Evergreen opened its doors as an eatery to Karachi, I fell in love with the variety of food apart from the sandwiches all over again. That love was rekindled with a recent visit and the chance I took with the Salmon Poke Bowl. It was exquisite. There are no other words to describe the taste. Brown rice is layered at the bottom, with purple cabbage, spring onions,thin cucumber slices, coriander and fresh salmon filling the bowl, and all of this topped with japanese mayo and sprinkled with white sesame seeds. The vinaigrette is served in a small ramekin, I suppose to retain the crunch of the vegetables and to avoid being soaked up completely by the rice. Crunchy, soft, salty, herby, nutty due to the sesame seeds, cut with the sharpness of the spring onions, but simultaneously coated with the Japanese mayo. And of course, the salmon itself was melt-in-the-mouth, fresh from the sea gorgeousness in a bowl. My cousin loved her Greek Burger with sweet potato fries, and we both fell instantly in love with the chocolate chunk cookie. Chunk because there were no chocolate chips. No sir. There were large chunks of dark chocolate filling the cookie in its entirety, and I'm not ashamed to say I stuffed myself silly.
I can't wait to visit Evergreen again!
