Review: authentic vegetarian ethnic food
Bloodroot is the most unique, and probably best, restaurant you've ever been to. Devoted to a feminist vegetarianism and vegetarian feminism, the restaurant is run collectively, and has no waitresses. You order with a woman at the desk, bring your slip up to the kitchen counter, and when your food is ready your name is called out. Although it sounds casual, Bloodroot is perfect for special occasions because of the exceptional care they take when preparing the food. The restaurant is primarily organic and many vegetables are locally grown. They follow a seasonal menu, so be sure to come at different times of the year to get a full range of dishes. The food is just so hearty and perfect and wonderful, even meat eating friends will love it. And they have a bookstore, cooking classes, and wonderful decor! |
