Two Superb Vegan Restaurant Reports

Sweet potato fries at Forever Vegan
The vagabond travelers have returned to the USA after many months in Mexico. We spent several days in Mexico City in La Roma (neighborhood) where we returned to one of our favorite vegan restaurants - "Forever Vegan". (https://www.forevervegano.com/) In fact we went 3 days in a row because there were several items to try. Though I love cooking, I am thrilled when I find a restaurant where I do not have to ask so many questions and where people are glad to be providing plants to the public. This was my favorite dish....sweet potato fries with cashew cream dressing.

Living Burrito - wrapped in collard green
beans, cauliflower rice, guacamole, cashew sour cream


Manicotti with zucchini noodle and
cashew ricotta cheese
One of the great things that makes traveling fun, even frequenting the same places more than once is the new restaurants that appear from time to time. In our travels I see that there is an increasing interest in healthier plant based food. 
Tomatico Tart - almond tart with veggies
and cashew mascarpone cream
Now we are back in our hometown area - Carrboro/Chapel Hill, NC. I say hometown because it is where we have a home and community even though we haven't lived here for close to 8 years. Catching up with friends is our greatest pastime and this week we had two chances to try "Living Kitchen" in Chapel Hill. What a treat, and we need to return to try a few more items on the menu. http://livingkitchen.com/    

Each night we shared the tiramisu - yummmmmm.
I have taken several photos to help myself remember these combinations and to share them with you. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone, plant based or not.

Rawco Taco with walnut - almond meat,
avocado, etc.
Pad Thai with zucchini and sweet
potato noodles


Tiramisu - layers of almond-hazelnut crumble,
 cacao and vanilla cashew cream
