Eat Like a Rabbit

This was such an interesting restaurant. I suspect I won't begin to do it justice in writing without the photos to back up my descriptions. It is worth the experience and the food is good, too.

The concept of the company is to generate as little waste as possible with a natural compost, recycled place settings and mis-matched tables and chairs that have been painted to conceal the differences. A giant cloth hung from the ceiling and pleated properly reminds me of an orange circus tent, but with only 6 tables underneath does not give the illusion of a circus, but of a more intimate restaurant. The building definitely has an eclectic feel with certain political opinions as is evident by wall hangings created by local artists. Also, the restaurant is operated by young individuals--college students who seem to work hard and to have fun doing it.

The foods are organic and all vegan. Paul certainly believed it was a cheap meal for the quality and concept of the food. We had the tea of the day that can be sweetened or unsweetened by honey or coconut. . .um, I don't think I actually remember. But it was a decaffeinated fruit tea. Each dish can be wrapped or served as a salad. I had a beautiful salad with mixed greens, bean sprouts, and sunflower seeds with a side of a bit of hummus topped with hemp. The hummus and blue corn chips were good. I'm afraid I thought the peanut dressing was just a tad sweeter than I was looking for that evening, though. Paul loved his wrap with mixed greens, carrots, celery, and bananas? I almost didn't believe it, but I'm telling the truth. And it was more than edible. Paul had no trouble cleaning both plates, but because the items were so light, he wasn't worried about feeling stuffed.

This restaurant came as a recommendation from a friend of Paul's coworker who had learned about our website. We thank them for thinking of us.
