Connecticut, New York’s northern neighbor, has plenty of vegan eats to feast upon. It’s an ideal destination for a day trip. I can get to Connecticut without heading far into the New York City area and her more messy crossings. The Throgs Neck Bridge is an easy breeze. A couple Read more…

Pleased to be finally eating a healthy breakfast, my day of Oregon eats began in Bend at Mother’s Juice Cafe. This place fit right in with Bend, a progressive mix of aging hippies and idealistic youngins. I had their Mothers Bowl: a vibrant chia pudding (made with hemp milk, kale, lemon, ginger and mango) Read more…

Like I mentioned in my previous post, Portland is Vegan Heaven. The level of vegan eats available, both from all-vegan establishments and omni eateries, is truly daunting. Hours of operations helped me decided on Bob’s Red Mill Whole Grain Store, a outlet of sorts for Grain God Bob that serves up Read more…

One night, after our after-school crafting class, two hungry teachers did a Mac and Cheese Crawl through Brooklyn. It was an ambitious evening, but we perservered. Why? Who knows. Elbow Room on Flatbush ave, sharing space with Morgan’s BBQ, is a hip mac & cheese counter spot with a vegan option. Read more…

We recently visited the Jersey Shore, by accident really. Our fumbly roadtrip had us arriving at Kaya’s Kitchen, Belmar’s down-home vegan eatery, in the awkward span of time between the old lunch lull and prior to the start of the dinner menu–which is unfortunate, as I had my heart set Read more…

When I make dinner plans with friends, it’s very hard to decide where to eat. Especially in Brooklyn. When it comes to vegan-friendliness, Brooklyn throws just a handful of good options, barely. Take away those options that are packaged, processed foods cooked to order, and you’re left with even less. Read more…

Go to: Vegan Cuts I was delighted to get a full-sized Teese heat n’ serve cheese in my April box from Vegan Cuts! I remember the first time I tasted Teese, Chicago Vegan Foods‘ vegan cheese, at the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival in 2008 (see here). It was vegan cheese satisfaction pre-Daiya. Read more…

With time on my side, I set off on a culinary exploration of Atlanta, Georgia. After all, spring break was here! I was excited to escape New York… and to add another state to my veganvictuals headboard of sensual vegan eats. And Atlanta has so much to offer! I was pleasantly Read more…

Sure, it isn’t really weather-appropriate to be craving Mac & Cheese, but sometimes the body’s pulls and pushes don’t make any sense. I’m okay with that. But to eat it twice? In one day? In one hot, muggy day in New York City? Sometimes I think in themes and it Read more…

Sometimes I love Brooklyn. Lying in bed sick knowing vegan macaroni and cheese was being bicycled to me is one of those times. Yes, Brooklyn Mac in Greenpoint, with its fully veganizable menu, delivers. Their menu is simple and effective, like most of the world’s wonders. Select a mac n’ Read more…

For four months my vegan gal pals have been scheduling and rescheduling a trip to Cocoa V. Finally: we came, saw and left with bloated bellies. But first… Blossom De Jour, high-end Blossom’s “shrewd” fast food sister, has recently taken space next to NYC vegan landmark, Cocoa V. So naturally, Read more…

I started 2010 doing brunch at Boneshakers [read here] so why not continue the tradition? Last year I said: “There’s something about 1/1 that motivates change. Yes, I subscribe to that New Years philosophy of renewal and growth, mostly because I appreciate the year as a unit of measurement, appreciate Read more…

Hey. New York City. Guess what? Your vegan points are piling up. Why? Because S’MAC, the East Village’s specialty eatery, has a vegan macaroni and cheese that is amazing. It’s the real deal. And it’s not awkwardly-melted belly-twisting packaged cheese, no. It’s coconut milk, rice flour, potato flour, palm oil, organic Read more…

Home has many shapes and forms. This particular evening, in Green River, Wyoming, it came in the form of the Coachman Inn, yes, but more the huge sky and rock formations that surrounded the cluster stop on the way to the great Flaming Gorge. But morning brought us back onto Read more…
