The last Denny’s in Marin (County, California) demolished to make way for vegetarian eatery. Story in SFGate about how the times be a-changing. I remember not long after I first moved to San Francisco, driving up to this Denny’s late one night. I’d been out having a good…
Ediflora
I’ve been working on planning a dinner party for next weekend. I’m super excited. I tested out a couple of the recipes last week to pretty good results once I was willing to tweak them to my one taste. I did most of the shopping for the rest…
On the heels of my recent meal at Millennium, in Oakland, CA, I made arrangements to try another vegan tasting menu, this time a little closer to home at French restaurant Everest, here in Chicago. Wait. What? A French restaurant that has a vegan tasting menu? I thought…
