Cabo Vegan Restaurant & Market
20 Main Street
Brockton, MA 02301
508-638-8333
857-413-1453
All vegan, this family-run local catering service offers traditional Cabo Verdean dishes recreated 100% plant-based, along with other inventive dishes. They have fulfilled a hard-earned dream of opening a brick-and-mortar restaurant and market in downtown Brockton. Their presentation of the classic Cape Verdean dish cachupa or katxupa stew omits the meat and uses slow-stewed hominy (corn), beans, yuca and sweet potato. Their “chuna” sub roll uses sea veggie blends with chickpeas, walnuts, celery, vegan mayo, red onions, shredded carrots, and dried cranberries, for a better-than-tuna dish. Their acclaimed lobster-less roll uses hearts of palm with mayo, dill, lemon, red onion, truffle oil, and a house ocean spice blend. Corn on the cob smothered in house-made Ranch, scallions, savory spices, herbs and crunchy onions surrounded by leek sprouts, plus other savory dishes, desserts, and nutritious hot and cold beverages round out the menu. Inspired by a will to help animals, the planet, and the good health of the community, they create vegan food with Portuguese and African influences. With a motto of “Our food is grown, not born,” they refine recipes through extensive taste testing and experimentation to replace animal ingredients with natural plant ingredients.
