Coconut Noodle Soup

The Chefs: Elizabeth and Herbivore

The Menu: A delicious bowl of coconut noodle soup, with spinach, grated carrots, tofu, pineapple, and broccoli, all topped with Organicville's Sriracha Sauce.

The Goods: It's cold. Though I managed to escape to Los Angeles this weekend and dodge most of the torrential downpour that took place in the Bay Area, today's chill meant that there was only one option for lunch: soup. I pretty much love anything that involves rice noodles and Sriracha, so this bowl from Heribvore was perfect. Continuing the theme of perfection this week, we'll be editing the final proofs of our March+April issue on Thursday (so help me, they had better be flawless!), and directly after that we'll be heading out the door and down the street to Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem for the first SF Vegan Drinks of the year! I'm really stoked about the new location, and here's why: the owner, Mark, is super nice and awesome; the drinks specials (vegan White Russians!) rock; and these four life-changing little words: sweet potato tater tots. Yeah.

Half Soup, Half Sandwich, Half Pig

The Chefs: Elizabeth and Herbivore

The Menu: A delicious cup of coconut noodle soup with half a grilled soy chicken sandwich. In other words, perfection in a lunch.

The Goods: Friends, it's been downright freezing here in SF. No, literally the temperature has reached 32 degrees, and frankly, I'm just not a fan. So, soup was definitely going to happen for lunch today, and though my fears were baseless, I worried that it might not be filling enough to just have a cup of soup. I opted to also get half of my all-time favorite sandwich, the grilled soy chicken. Mushing a bunch of things that don't necessarily fit, ala ManBearPig, can backfire, but today's was a definite case of two great things going great together. Not to toot our our horn, but much like VegNews and Pinterest. See what I mean?
