Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge!

Apparently, I'm not the only person wanting more vegan choices in the restaurants I patronize.  The folks at California Vegan Restaurants have launched the Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge, which will take place October 1st through October 31st.  During that time, several local restaurants have agreed to offer specially created vegan items on their dinner menus.  People who order these dishes will be asked to vote for their favorites online at the California Vegan Restaurants website.

If you want to encourage local restaurants to offer more vegan menu options, this is your chance to get out and let the participating restaurants and chefs know how much you appreciate their efforts.  The restaurants that will be offering special vegan selections during the month of October are: 

Kru
Michelangelo's
Tower Bridge Bistro
The Broiler Steakhouse
58 Degrees & Holding Co.
Capitol Garage
Hot Italian
Cafe Capricho
Bombay Bar & Grill
Aioli Bodega Espanola
Sugar Plum Vegan Cafe

So I guess you know which restaurants I'll be blogging about in October.  Personally, I can't wait!

Yes, RunningForWitness, it's quite excellent! I couldn't believe it when I found out about it. I hope it inspires other local chefs to create vegan menu selections for their restaurants too.

Thanks, Kristine! I'm having a lot of fun with this. We'll have to go for a research lunch in your neighborhood sometime soon.
