I wrote a book about bacon, so finding myself in a vegetarian/vegan dining situation is always a curious experience. But today I took a leap and had lunch at Green and dessert/tea at Nami on 7th Street just north of McDowell Road. Labels aside, their food is simply spectacular. If you haven’t tried it yet because you’re skeptical of ‘the vegan thing’, set aside your preconceived notions and visit this Coronado establishment. Not to miss are the thyme french fries and pretty much any of the tsoynami ice cream treats. I also had the ‘no harm chicken parm sandwich’ which was quite enjoyable. They have a patio for when the weather is nice, and their weekend brunch is becoming a popular event for those in the ‘hood.
