If you're ever in the Northeast Ohio area or more specifically, Lakewood, you have to check out Earth Bistro Cafe! I just had my first experience here this past weekend with my bestie (Hey Steph!). Their business model: "A Healthy Place To Eat! Contemporary American cuisine with a Cuban flair." I'm down with that!
Once you get inside this rather unassuming storefront you are treated to a very warm and cozy atmosphere. Not too big, not too small. But what's got me all jumping for joy is the mega Vegan Menu! It's the same size as their "regular menu" and for this vegan chick that scores major points! (I'm so sick of these restaurants trying to pass of one or two vegan options and expecting us to be happy about it.)
But what about the food: local, healthy, organic and fresh...oh and it just happens to be AMAZING! Steph & I had a very good time scoffing down:
Caribbean Veggie Quesadilla: A blend of veggies galore with melted vegan cheese served with guacamole and salsa $8
Vegan Tostadas: 3 Toasted tortilla topped with black bean spread, grilled vegetables avocado, and grilled pineapple topped with a lime creamy dressing. Served with a side of cactus marinated slaw and salsa. $10
Black Bean Veggie Burger: Homemade quinoa, black rice, veggies and beans. Served with spring mix, tomatoes, onion, and slices of avocado. $10
This picture does not do this meal justice. The food was beautifully plated - a colorful feast for the eyes (I appreciate these things after attending Chef School) and piled high with tastiness. We had to laugh when the server brought more toppings!
The only utter disappointment of the night...they were sold out of their Vegan Chocolate Cake!
Sigh, I guess I'll just have to go back and I already have plans to do so this weekend - and that cake better be there!
