SVCC 2018 -- Capitol Garage

It’s becoming easier to find vegan options for lunch and dinner at local restaurants, but as I’m sure you all know, breakfast is another story. I can’t tell you how many times my breakfast has consisted of a side order of hash browns and a fruit cup.

One restaurant that always offers vegan options for breakfast, however, is Capitol Garage, a regular participant in the annual Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge. I stopped by today to see what special breakfast dishes they’re serving this month.

There were three: tofu scramble, apple cinnamon pancakes, and donuts. For me, the choice was clear – pancakes! The order consisted of three hearty pancakes, stuffed with chopped Pink Lady apples and served with fig jam (for traditionalists, maple syrup was also provided). Vegans who are trying to eliminate oils from their diet will be happy to know that these pancakes are oil-free.

Here’s a copy of Capitol Garage’s Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge menu. Looks like they have lots of great choices, no matter what time of day you decide to visit.
