Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
In the past two weeks I've dined at some of the most well-known eateries in the city of Cleveland, which I am forever grateful for. Grateful that I get the opportunity to taste some of the craziest and wackiest dishes that this city has to offer. Grateful I am also able to seek out and consume pretty stellar vegetarian and vegan cuisine. It has been a great summer of dining and if anything has ...
Sustainable food with simple ingredients. A short menu with options ranging from Bison Meatballs to an Atlantic Polluck soaked in a chickpea-tomato broth. Quiet and comfortable atmosphere.

Not sure if I can remember every Wednesday to take a picture of every dish I eat (because let's be real, sometimes it's not cute) but I'll try. Lately due to the influx of products I've been receiving, it ...
Despite having been to TownHall a little over a week ago on a Saturday, I knew I had to come in again to try their new Vegan Night menu (which is only available on Mondays). I noticed the menu on Instagram two weeks ago and some of the featured items include the Cool Garbanzo Bean Salad Sandwich ($9) and the Spirulina Pistachio Pesto and Brown Rice Penne ($9). The upper half of the menu displays ...
