I had one of the best vegan meals I've gotten in a chain-type restaurant tonight at California Pizza Kitchen (CPK). Surprising, no?
CPK even has a special section (PDF here) on their website to very clearly spell out which menu items are vegan (which helps clarify things for their serving staff too, so I don't have to!)
So tonight, my mom and I (both vegan) shared a grilled veggie salad and a veggie pizza (hold the cheese). We asked for the fat-free balsamic on the salad, which made it a much healthier choice at no cost to taste.
I'm a very happy diner - thanks CPK!!
I used to work right near a CPK and their vegan split pea soup was really delish.
ReplyDeleteYum! That looks amazing, especially for a non-vegan place!
ReplyDeleteWhaa? I always assumed that they would never have any vegan offerings so I never bothered to check. I love it when restaurants spell it out clearly though. This is good to know, thanks!
ReplyDeleteWoah! I didn't know CPK was vegan friendly! That is one beautiful pizza.

I'm still yet to try broccoli/broccolini on pizza. I really must - it looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteWow, that *does* look like a mighty fine pizza. It's so rare and wonderfully helpful when places go into details like that on their menu. I hope they know the effort is appreciated!
