Orlando’s Winter Park Biscuit Company Launches Full Vegan Menu
After a successful soft opening of their brick-and-mortar in November, Orlando area favorite—Winter Park Biscuit Company—is launching their highly anticipated full menu this week!
Winter Park Biscuit Company has been serving up hot biscuits and “chik” sandwiches to hungry patrons by the dozens as a pop-up throughout South Florida since 2017. After years of growing a local cult following, former Blink-182 road chef and cookbook author, Mary Westfall, and Day to Remember guitarist, Neil Westfall, recently broke ground on a restaurant located in Winter Park’s East End Market in November. Starting with a limited menu, reminiscent of many of their pop-ups, the pair announced the full menu is launching this week on Wednesday, February 17th.
The new leveled up sandwiches and indulgent brunch dishes are joining the existing lineup of breakfast sandos on house-made biscuits, Impossible burgers, and buffalo slathered “chik” strips. Some new standouts include a backyard burger topped with BBQ sauce and house slaw, “chik” biscuit sandwiches with truffle butter, loaded fries, and seasonal scones.
The restaurant is operating as pickup only in the East End Market with socially distanced measures in place. Order online on the website for pick up between 11am-7pm daily, and the line starts under the neon “Hot Biscuits” sign.

PlantX is a one-stop vegan retailer that sells everything from oat milks and canned goods to all-natural soaps and air-purifying indoor plants.

The Best Vegan Dal Ever
This is my go-to dal. It’s creamy from the coconut milk, tangy from the lemon. It pulls sweetness from the tomatoes and sneaks in some surprise spinach (mostly because I wanted to add some greenery). It’s energizing and light, while remaining both grounding and comforting.
