I was in the area for an appointment and looked up Happy Cow restaurants. Headed to Great Sage to try, but didn't look closely at the hours (closed Mondays). Luckily, the Roots Market was next door and I saw on this app there was a hot bar. Yeah!! Had to remind myself to only go to the hot/cold bar and I wasn't there to shop (still left with B12 vitamins and a pint of blueberries). I had a spoonful of almost every hot bar item (all vegan and $1 off on Mondays), a spoonful of a couple cold bar salads, and a cup of pea soup for later. All vegan cold bar items (curry "chicken" salad, eggless egg salad, chickpea salad, coleslaw, and artichokes) were delicious. The vegan hot bar items were okay. I'm trying to like jackfruit, but still not a fan. The best hot bar item was the garlic mushrooms and onions. I did try a little of my curry pea soup...very flavorful!! Can't wait to have the rest later. Great store! Wish I had one close to my house!
