LOS ANGELES, June 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- TiNDLE – the "ridiculously good" plant-based chicken brand – announces its first national restaurant partnership with Veggie Grill, the largest 100% plant-based restaurant company in the U.S. with more than 30 restaurants in five markets and growing. This marks the availability of TiNDLE in more than 500 restaurants globally.
Established in Irvine, CA in 2006, Veggie Grill has grown to become the leading 100% plant-based restaurant group in the U.S., fueled by a vision and passion to help people begin, advance and enjoy their plant-based journey. Veggie Grill believes more plant-based restaurants will positively impact American food culture, by empowering customers to keep doing what they love while combating climate change and an unsustainable food system, all without sacrificing taste and enjoyment.
"At Veggie Grill, we have always prided ourselves on delivering the very best the plant-based world has to offer and partnering with TiNDLE allows us to continue to do exactly that with their high-quality products," says T.K. Pillan, Chairman and Founder at Veggie Grill. "And because TiNDLE is such a versatile product, it allows us to expand our offerings and give our guests a completely new grilled chicken menu experience that we know they will love."
Starting today, restaurant-goers can choose two new TiNDLE dishes available on Veggie Grill menus at all 30 locations across the country, including:
- Grilled BBQ Chick'n Sandwich: Chargrilled TiNDLE chick'n, sweet and smoky BBQ sauce, topped with honey-mustard slaw, roasted corn, ranch dressing, served on a brioche bun.
- Chinese Chick'n Salad: Chargrilled TiNDLE chick'n, cabbage slaw, cilantro, romaine lettuce, candied almonds, and crispy wonton strips, tossed in a sesame dressing.
Unique to TiNDLE, the first plant-based chicken that was specifically made with chefs and for chefs, thus designed to be highly versatile and malleable. TiNDLE offers limitless possibilities for any restaurant partner and is a true "chef's canvas" for new and exciting plant-based dishes from fried, sautéed or now grilled, as seen through the new grilling application in Veggie Grill's menu additions.
"Veggie Grill has long been a frontrunner in the path to creating a more sustainable food system, and we couldn't be more thrilled to team up on this incredible milestone for TiNDLE," said Andre Menezes, CEO and Co-Founder of TiNDLE. "Our growth is that much more meaningful in our ability to align with partners that share in our mission to make plant-based foods accessible, delicious and enjoyable."
In a little more than a year since its launch, TiNDLE has grown from being served in a handful of Singapore-based locations to being offered in more than 500 restaurants across the United States, Asia, Middle East and Europe – including recent launches in the United Kingdom and Germany. The plant-based chicken brand first debuted in North America in February 2022 and is now available through various restaurant partners in major markets such as New York, Chicago, Miami, Austin, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and more.
