Candle 79, Vegan Restaurant in NYC

May 18, 2010 – 8:51 am

Finally, the long-awaited Candle 79 post! The trouble is, I hate downloading photos. It is such a pain. Sure there is an easier way.

Anyway, the photos are bad anyway. They in no way do justice to the deliciousness and imagina-tivity of the food. What a great birthday dinner.

Cousin Tracee had the avocado Salad with Quinoa:

along with the Polenta fries, which we all sampled:

Mom had the Mediterranean Tempeh Cake:

This was a fancy guacamole app we had:

I had the Carribbean Jerk Seitan:

And somehow I didn’t get (or somehow lost) a photo of Cousin Christopher’s Raw Enchiladas. Oh, and we each had a yummy made-from scratch juice-soda (you’ll remember my post on their ginger soda).  If you go to NYC, and you love good vegan food, Candle 79 is a great place to get it.  Don’t let these sorry photos deter you.

PS: We even caught a glimpse of Alec Baldwin waiting for a table!
