    Not a vegan here and actually enjoyed it! Good place where vegans and non vegans can find some common ground...in the well crafted and often overlooked cocktails (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

    When Gourmet Live sat down with Alicia Silverstone, she raved about the vegan menu at Candle 79. “Order the Seitan Picata & this peanut butter chocolate crazy mousse thing at the end. It is so good.”

    Vegan ve vejeteryan mutfak sunan, et bulunmayan ve ortalamanın üstünde fiyatları olan mekan.

    restaurante orgânico vegan, boa comida, mas é caro e os pratos são pequenos para a região.
