I wanted to give you a recap on my fabulous Valentine's day dinner at the always wonderful Cafe Manna. They had a 4 course Valentine's Day special that of course I had to try... all of the pictures were taken with my phone.....
First course was a salad with Taro Root -
Loved this salad and never had Taro Root before... I am sure many people wouldn't know the different between this and a potato.
They also had a Cream of Spinach soup which was not vegan but certainly delicious.
I had some organic fair trade green tea = great tasting.
Palate Cleanser 2nd course vegan Sorbet.
My main course was a Vegetable Torte
It has lots of veggies and a potato custard with plaintains. This was much larger than it looks and I could only eat half of it... saving room for dessert...
My date has the calzone which I also tried and it was great. He is not a vegetarian and prefers to eat meat. However he did enjoy this meal and left with a stuffed tummy :)
Dessert!!! Raspberry Sauce, Fresh Raspberries, with a Raspberry Sorbet in between those cookie type cakes. They were chewy and hard so I dipped pieces of them into the sorbet and it was delicious.
Gorgeous!
Loved the dinner and loved that I had leftovers!!

Mmm your dinner and dessert look amazing! We have NO restaurants within a 30 mile radius that serve Vegan dishes or desserts.
ReplyDeleteThere really isn't much in the Milwaukee area with organic and vegan options, except this place... which is a bit of a drive but so worth it!
