• Deliciousness in NOLA! Vegan beignets!!!

I was kind of sad going to NOLA thinking as a vegan I wouldn't get to try any traditional creole cajun cooking. But Seed ended up being a terrific mix of traditional foods and American comfort foods. With my boyfriend, we ordered the southern fried tofu sandwich, mac & cheeze, gumbo, and beignets. The tofu sandwich was on delicious fresh bread, but the surprise was the fried tofu had a flavor somewhere between KFC and McDonald's chicken nuggets, so if you miss either of those things you'd love this sandwich. The mac and cheeze was classicly delicious. The gumbo was awesome, we opted for the addition of seasoned seitan and it was the right choice. Oh, and the beignets!!! What an exciting treat, powdered sugar-coated donut-like fried dough pastries, it's easy to eat the entire bowl they bring you out for $7 and then order a second. I only wish we could've eaten at Seed a second time before leaving!
