Saint John is a blue-collar industrial town, and (frankly) something of a backwater, but it still seemed strange to me that there hadn't been a vegetarian restaurant here in ages.

 

The proprietors are well-established in the local community, wife Sarah as a vendor of vegetarian food at a local farmer's market, and Keith as the sous-chef at the popular Saint John Alehouse, where he's been doing vegetarian nights for years. The new place will be called Vegolution, and it's opening next week.

 

Disclosure: Though I'm a dedicated omnivore, I contributed to their crowdfunding campaign because...geez, no vegetarian restaurant, nearly two decades into the 21st century? Oy. Besides, now I'll have a place to take my sister when she's here from Vancouver.
