Lisa and I split the vegetarian platter (which happens to be all vegan).
Falafel, dolmades, cucumber-tomato salad, hummus, and babaganoush. While the textures of both the hummus and babaganoush were delightfully creamy and smooth, they were lacking in flavor. The cucumber salad added a nice, cool crispness to the platter, but the stars of the show were definitely the dolmades (stuffed grape leaves) and falafel.
We already decided that next time one of us will order the dolmades platter and the other will get the falafel.
Middle Eastern restaurants are super veg-friendly! What is your favorite Middle Eastern dish?
Psst... Tonight (October 8th) is the Monthly Vegan Buffet at Trang Viet Cuisine. The buffet offerings are usually hit or miss, but it's always fun to gather with a bunch of local vegans and veg-food lovers. I highly recommend the soups and rolls, though.
