Bike & Eat

While the all day’s are still all mine, some biking and eating ’round my neighborhood. Above: the 69th street pier with my chariot. Below: Silly bike selfies with MP

The only all-vegan spot in Bay Ridge, Shangri-La. Shangri-La is has plenty of mock meats that new vegetarians are all about.Β  But we wanted real food, not soy science meat.Β Β 

Luckily there are some fresh dishes to select.Β  What’s a summer without Summer Rolls: Shredded vegetables, cucumber, bean curd and basil leaves with moo-shu sauce. I loved that there was daikon in there–so crisp.

Our salads: Shredded mango, mixed greens, asparagus, peppers, alfalfa sprouts and beets with miso sauce; Watercress with avocado, beets, and alfalfa sprouts with sesame-peanut dressing.Β  They did the trick but would have benefit from some texture components.
