More About

A more salubrious lunchtime option is the vegan burger ($7), a flavor-packed patty bursting with roasted kale, chickpeas, shiitake mushrooms, sesame seeds, and crunchy bits of edamame. On occasion, the counter also serves up a creamy, lusty housemade boudin blanc ($7) draped in a dark, smoky, braised-onion relish that accents the sweet sausage nicely. The fries ($2) are nothing special, but the mint lemonade ($2) is terrific: brisk, sweet, and brimming with freshly chopped mint, it's as fragrant and invigorating as a julep or some icy North African cooler. Our taste buds and bellies just might make it after all.
