Uncle Victor started his business when he was 24 years old and has been running his stall for over 40 years. As a vegetarian due to his religion, he has been promoting vegetarianism in Singapore, as well as for sustainability and environmental reasons. As a result, in order to make vegetarian meals more appealing to the locals, he began researching and recreating food that would suit our palates.

Upon first look at the satays, you would probably forget they’re actually vegetarian! Made up of soy protein, the satay “meat” has the charred bits just like the real one which gave a pleasant crunch with every bite. Additionally, the bitterness from the charred complemented the smokiness and sweetness of the satay nicely.
When dipped in the peanut sauce, the flavours were further enhanced and you would instantly forget that you’re actually eating soy protein. The “meat” had the chewiness and texture that’s similar to chicken with a slight difference in the aftertaste. However, it is pretty subtle and would not affect the overall enjoyment and taste of the satay. Victor Veggie serves their satay at $0.80 per stick, with a min of 10 sticks.
