Vegan Mofo Day 15: a juicy day in the big city


Just look at that ruby red juice! Okay, I may have enhanced the colour a bit, but only so that the image would match the taste.

Last night I caught up with some friends from my undergrad in Toronto, where we spent the night lounging in a schmancy hotel room and drinking all the wine, followed by a day of shopping and good veggie eats on Queen West. Unfortunately I have once again failed miserably to document my beautiful food, which is a shame, because the gluten free vegan banana nut pancakes at Fresh were enormous and divine, but had nothing on the tapas, appetizers, and cocktails we shared at Fressen (marinated olives, jicama mango salad, baba ganoush, and an asparagus bundle--"Steamed bundled asparagus on a bed of warm herbed quinoa with a light cream sauce and miso hemp butter" omg yum).

So instead this gorgeous Immune Boost juice (carrot, beet, apple, ginger, vitamin C, and echinacea) will have to serve as a metonym for the entire weekend.
