Papa G's

A great place for a warm vegan organic meal. Probably best for lunch or dinner. A small salad bar and beer selection are available.
For a warm, comfort food, I would suggest the macaroni and "cheese". The base for the cheese is sunflower seeds and is smooth and creamy leaving you satisfied.
They also have BBQ tofu which is packaged and available to purchase for home use and at small coops and some larger grocery stores in the area. It was delicious though a little salty but mixed with a soaked or cooked grain would balance it would definitely provide balance.
They have great kimchee and a chunky, hearty hummus.

All and all, a great stop for a quick vegan meal or a carbon foot friendly lunch date!

A NEW CITY! Vegan Adventure

The past month has been an adventure. Relocating to a new city. Portland,OR. I took a Personal Training job down here which has been great. I love work. I am closer to friends and the city is much more energizing then Olympia. Not to mention more restaurants and grocery stores that cater to specific palates.

The following will be reviews on two new vegan restaurants in the SE Portland area that are definitely worth trying.
