Anyone tried this place out yet? I think it's pretty new

Vegetarian and probably very reasonably priced! It's right by Foundation I believe.

I went a couple of weeks ago and I thought it wasn't bad. The food is plain - in a good way. I hate the pseudo-morrocan-tofu-suprise school of vegetarian food. I had a grilled pear and cheese sandwich - very good clean flavors, and a blandish pasta salad - you may want to keep the salt shaker near by. Vegatarian chocolate cake was not as successful.

It is a nice little room and really enthusiastic staff. The guy serving us tried to convince us that the carob-fondue at Foundation would cure us of our chocolate cravings and show that carob was clearly superior to chocolate. He was lucky Ling was not in the room - you ever see a girl beat up a guy - not pretty.

Carob Fondue? Sounds like an item off the menu from Purgatory.

BLASPHEMY!

Heading down there with my baseball bat right now...I'll show that whack job a thing or two...

And did he explain what made the chocolate cake "vegetarian"? Do they use oil instead of butter? :hmmm:
