VCC Eats for the List

October 9, 2022 by christine

It’s been a nice weekend here after a busy week, but I am looking forward to cooling fall temps since it’s still in the 90s. But it’s also still great weather for simple salads and soy curl stir fries.

Monday we celebrated our 25 year dating anniversary (!!!) by enjoying vegan options at Mikuni and amazed at how crowded it was for a Monday night. But enjoyed the lively atmosphere and great veggie roll options.

And I had lunch twice this week at Zest Kitchen for the Autumn Harvest Bowl and Prana Bowl, life is good. So was the gooey and hearty vegan Blackbird Margherita pizza jazzed up with Miyoko’s Mozz and olives we had while watching Halloween themed shows Friday night.

We have been slow to embrace the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge so far for October with so much going on, but make it out to Pho Fresh last night for great beer and to try their great VCC menu starting with the Spicy Wonton with Chili Sauce.

Then on to the ADB Rice-sadilla, ADB standing for all day breakfast. And this was stuffed with vegan mozzarella, sausage, and egg with kicky dipping sauce for a delightful treat.

The was also the ADB Banh Mi and ADB Fried Rice, both delicious and going to be tough to top these options! We need to get busy trying more restaurants now for the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge.

Now I am preparing myself for another busy, but hopefully good week ahead and productive. And hopefully cooling temps to match our turning leaves finally. I hope you have a delicious week ahead starting with the list.

  • Vegan fast food French fries. Because not all of them are!
  • Vegan Halloween treats.
  • Vegan grocery store cakes.
  • 21 vegan bodybuilders.
  • Viral vegan recipes to mix it up.
  • Vegan eye creams.
  • How to order vegan at Sonic.
  • Vegan upcycled food brands.
  • Trying the vegan options of Chipotle.

    Aw, happy anniversary! What a lovely way to celebrate. Mikuni is high on my wish list of restaurant stops, although it’s not so simple to hop on over to Sacramento anymore… Actually, I didn’t realize they had multiple locations! Still not exactly in my usual area of travel, but maybe one day.

      Thanks! Yes and it seems like Mikuni keeps adding more locations. For a Monday night, it was packed!

      Thanks and I know, crazy temps that I am over! Especially since our AC died last night and I have to wait until later this week for service. Ugh!
