Truly “elevated” eating

My dining status could be called vegan curious. I believe that I had introduced myself elsewhere as one whose meals are kind of veggie forward.

My intro to vegan cooking was via a son-in-law who knew his way around the kitchen. This was not ersatz turkey (I believe it’s called Tofurky); he cooked genuinely tasty  versions of all the classics. His lasagna was poetic.

Last year, I believe I mentioned this as well, the vegan children sent me gift cards for Le Botaniste and Peace Food.

Fantastic. I am pretty devoted to Le Botaniste in particular. There are branches of this restaurant around town making it easier to visit one on various occasions.

Last night, these children took me to a restaurant whose table of plenty was a huge surprise. Delicious does not begin describing the variety we encountered at Coletta.

The pizza, the garlic rolls, a cheese board, the meatballs were all better than the originals. Lighter, more flavorful, more interesting than any Italian dish you’ve ever enjoyed.

That is not an exaggeration, it is a recommendation. Click on Coletta (above) for details.
