Vellee Deli

Check out Vellee Deli, now located in the skyway level of the Baker Center, along 7th Street between Marquette and 2nd. I've had the tofu burrito bowl a couple of times, which includes spicy Thai curry. Hold the zing sauce to make it vegan. They ask you what level of spiciness you'd prefer. Mild suits me fine!

Pizza Rev

Checked out Pizza Rev, a vegan-friendlly pizza chain with Twin Cities-area locations in Edina and Hopkins. Yep, they have vegan cheese. I'll have to order the vegan sausage next time. Add as many toppings as you'd like, all for one reasonable price. I'll be back.

The Bad Waitress

The Amsterdam Hash with tofu. One of the vegan options at The Bad Waitress.

Pizza Luce

The vegan Mock Muffuletta at Pizza Luce is always a solid choice. Got this one at the Seward location.  

Caffrey's Deli

For the first time in quite a long time, I indulged in the veganized Three Pepper Chicken sub at Caffrey's Deli in Lyn-Lake.

Target Field

Enjoyed a vegan hot dog today at Target Field. I might have overdone it on the ketchup. Kudos to the Twins for transitioning to compostable food and beverage packaging. Oh, and they just won 20 games in May.

A La Salsa- Update

I returned to A La Salsa at the Midtown Global Market to order the deliciously vegan soy chorizo.  I was informed by a conscientious employee that the rice is NOT VEGAN. It has chicken stock. It's disappointing that I wasn't informed of this when I explicitly attempted to order a vegan meal during my previous visit. But the soy chorizo is still vegan. Just don't order rice on the side!

A La Salsa

A La Salsa has become more vegan-friendly. Here is what is says on their web site: "Our latest creation is an alternative to traditional Mexican chorizo. We've created our own recipe for soy chorizo. It's vegetarian, gluten free, vegan, and...delicious!" After eating the Tacos de Soy Chorizo at the Midtown Global Market location, I can confirm the delicious part! There is a veg section of the menu and other vegetarian items are identified throughout.

Vegan at Target Field - 2015

Baseball season is starting again. Kudos to the Twins for adding another option for vegans in 2015. It has been reported that Hot Indian Foods will serve Vegan Aloo Gobi from a cart near section 120. (I recently had an opportunity to try the Vegan Aloo Gobi from their food truck at an event. Good stuff!)

There will be at least three things on various Target Field menus this year that use the word "vegan." Those aren't the only vegan items, of course, but it's nice when they actually use the v-word so you don't have to send employees searching for a list of ingredients while 10 people are in line behind you. Here is a link to a list of their veg and gluten-free items, which apparently hasn't been updated to include the new Hot Indian dish.

Galactic Pizza

I couldn't wait to dive into the vegan version of The Alamo at Galactic Pizza.
