Blossom Vegan Restaurant

For cautious carnivores, Blossom offers one big surprise: All the eggless pastas and mock meats actually taste pretty good. For vegans, it’s a candlelit godsend. Guiltily dreaming of veal scaloppine? Try the pan-seared seitan cutlets, tender wheat gluten served with truffle mashed potatoes in a white-wine caper sauce and sautéed kale. With fake-meat entrées averaging $20, carnivores may feel compelled to eat the real thing elsewhere, but vegetarians have indeed found a great date place.
