Woodsnack

Garden Cafe in Woodstock, New York is a wonderful little cafe who’s vegan quesadillas are worth the price of a rental car and Triborough Bridge traffic. I recommend the black bean and spinach version to share. I’m usually a great vegan cheese detective but I can’t place this vegan cheese. I have been coming the cafe for a few years now and it has remained a tasty, melty smooth perfect uncheese. I always forget to; Mmmm‘s get in the way.

I hate to say that their seitan is a bit chewy, undermarinated and a bit too White Wave the dishs’ price tags. After tasting Blossom‘s port wine seitan, I am a bit more critical of wheat gluten slabs. And I must mention FoodSparrow‘s passionate plea for us to get over to Candle Cafe for their Porcini Crusted Seitan, her seitan fave.
Dear Blogger, Sometimes when I upload a landscape picture it rotates into portrait format. The deliciousness of this strawberry shortcake cannot be adequately conveyed in this way. But trust me, the messy pile of strawberries, cream and cake was so, so good. (Unless super sweetness is in your daily regiment, I would opt to share this… or suffer embarassing sugar high behaviors.)
In fact, all of our desserts were so good! We stayed out in the garden amidst heavy downpours in order to finish them.
Until next time, Garden Cafe!
