Vegetate

Last night a small group of us went to try a new restaurant called Vegetate. Its a vegetarian restaurant. Diana and I were pretty excited to try it, but the boys were more than skeptical. The weird thing about this place was the location. It is located at 1414 9th street, which if you dont recognize the address its pretty much between the 9:30 club and the convention center in a totally dead area with nothing around it...but plenty of parking.

I started with a Chai, soy, and vodka cocktail. That alone was enough to convince me to go back. Best drink ever! but really small.

For appetizers we had a cheese plate, also really small, but again really yummy. Then for the main meal I got blue Cheese skillet cakes which were DELISH! (but small as well) . All the other dishes looked good too so I'll definitely go back to this place.

The only thing is that the desserts were terrible. TERRIBLE. They all sounded a little weird, but we decided to try them anyway. One came with a mound of Chocolate Ganoche on some lime puree surrounded by balsamic vinegar. The lime puree was the grossest thing ever! i cant even describe it. Diana got one with white cakes with a hint of lavendar and a shot of some ginger liquid. gross.
