• What a (pleasant) surprise

I was in Cincinnati for a work project this past week, and trying to find gluten-free vegan choices downtown wasn't that easy unless you just want a salad with some of the toppings picked off. I found this place on the HC app, but saw that they stop serving food at 3:00. I couldn't walk that far and back during my lunch break, so I called to see if I could order something off their lunch menu, have them just stick it in the fridge and let me pick it up after 5:00. They were happy to oblige. I was in a rush ordering and told the guy, just give me whatever's good and gluten-free. He suggested their Veggie Sandwich on GF bread and the "Wanda" salad. It didn't look that amazing when I picked it up, but when I got back to my hotel room and dug in, I was in heaven. It was a kale salad with carrots, sunflower seeds, cranberries, onions I think, and this delicious green vegan dressing all over it, and a grilled or roasted eggplant sandwich with red onions done in a light balsamic reduction sauce with a piece of probably roasted tofu that I thought was cheese. I actually called the store to make sure it wasn't cheese, thinking maybe I had misunderstood when I ordered. Best meal I had in Cincinnati all week!
