We're excited about Vibrant Vegan. Right now, VV is a pop-up that serves vegan food on Sundays from 11 to 7 p.m. They are located in the back of a carry-out in a strip mall on Hill Avenue. As of right now, there isn't any signage and so just head to the back of the Mini Mart, which has a kitchen, and place your order. You won't regret it.
They have a rotating menu (check their web site) with a soul food platter special as well as smoothie options and flavored waters. We ordered the Sunday special, which was a barbecue sandwich that mimicked pulled pork, using sweet potatoes. We've had lots of vegan BBQ sandwiches using jackfruit and so it was a real treat to have this option. The sweet potatoes were covered in a thick BBQ sauce that was tangy and sweet and then topped with coleslaw and then all fit into a bun. The sandwich was delicious and very unique!
There were sides of potato salad and baked beans, both which were tasty and complemented the sandwich nicely. The whole platter was filling but the food was not heavy. We find that a lot of vegan food achieves its tastiness with an over-reliance on oil. This food was tasty and healthy.
We're excited to watch what's next for Vibrant Vegan. They offer a meal service and so make sure to let us know how that is if you try them. In the meantime, we'll be making sure to make Vibrant Vegan part of our Sunday routine!
One side note, plan on carry-out. There really isn't seating within the convenience store.
