The side vegetables were all cooked to perfection.<br />The food was beautifully presented, and most important to my eye, visually colorful and vibrant.alicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28313024.post-64307764390114148872009-05-31T19:56:01.886-07:002009-05-31T19:56:01.886-07:00Your blog has some gorgeous photos and thanks for ...Your blog has some gorgeous photos and thanks for the heads up on this veggie restaurant in the SGV. I'm vegan and reside in the Silver Lake area but when I visit family in the SGV, we're always short on veggie restaurant options (to accomodate me) so I'll definetly have to take them there. :)<br /><br />If you're ever in the "veggie mood" again, you must try a lil vegan gem that opened up in Studio City, near Universal Studios. It's called SunPower Natural Cafe and it's this bright yellow building. Kick ass burgers, pizzas and seriously thick and creamy shakes. Burger patties are made from sunflower seeds and taste so yummy - unlike those frozen patties in the store. :( Ew. Shakes are so thick and creamy you won't even believe it's not made from milk. Crazy! Anyway . . . it's definetly a place you should check out.<br /><br />http://www.sunpowernatural.com/<br /><br />Tata!Not a Hippie Veganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09911090376295039335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28313024.post-50026893495173833052009-05-20T23:41:45.382-07:002009-05-20T23:41:45.382-07:00Nanciful: Thanks so much for stopping by.
