I do want to support it though since memphis has nothing else like this. <br /><br />My hope is that people will get use to the idea of eating at a vegan restaurant through Imagine's comfort food. Then in the future when the healthy, gourmet, and dare I say it, 'foodie' vegan restaurant of my dreams opens in Memphis, eating at a vegan restaurant won't be such a big deal.melissanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-81992906052273878102011-05-18T16:18:49.680-05:002011-05-18T16:18:49.680-05:00Hey Mike!

But I've been there many times since (ha, they've only been open a few weeks, and I think I've been in 5 or 6 times!) and service has been quick and the food was hot and delicious. <br /><br />Yes, Morgan. There is lots of faux meat, but the prices are so cheap that it's really sorta better than buying the stuff and making a similar dish at home. Plus, they're not afraid to fry stuff...and at home, I always bake things...even though I'd rather have someone else fry something for me in a restaurant. It seems like I feel less guilty about fried food when someone else does the frying!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-69666358293032273362011-05-17T18:43:10.632-05:002011-05-17T18:43:10.632-05:00I've been dying to go to this place and try th...I've been dying to go to this place and try the food. Those cheese sticks look really good! But I am a little disappointed that they are using faux meat I could buy in the store- seems like stuff I could make at home. When I go out I want something I CAN'T duplicate at home. Maybe I'll just go for the cheese sticks- don't think I can make those at home :)morganbbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376961578790566245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-18607890543479885462011-05-17T14:18:53.540-05:002011-05-17T14:18:53.540-05:00I forgot to say that it seemed like they were so e...I forgot to say that it seemed like they were so excited about their vegan restaurant concept that they never thought about how to make the actual food.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-5404954212761936332011-05-17T14:12:50.267-05:002011-05-17T14:12:50.267-05:00I live in Memphis.

I don't remember what my wife had. The ravioli I had was undercooked and hard. The Garlic toast was bread with butter and garlic powder. And my sons mac n cheese was not good at all...and cold. <br /><br />Like I said, it may get better but it's not better yet.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2364183667091630765.post-59252498610661295402011-05-17T13:56:57.301-05:002011-05-17T13:56:57.301-05:00It all looks awesome!

Far be it from me to deny anyone their choice of foods, but I do think menu offerings at vegan restaurants would serve the vegan community better if it helped pull them away from a meat-centric mindset. This gives me an idea...<br /><br />@Bianca: Do you know how much you inspire me? Vegan Crunk is always at the top of my blogroll, because you post like a newspaper--every day, reliably, like the sun and the seasons.
