On the day I was heading home to Seattle, Tish and Jason and I went to breakfast at The Grind Café. They have quite a few vegan options (all of their scrambles can be made with tofu instead of eggs). Tish and I both got the breakfast burrito made vegan. I have to say it was one of the nicest breakfast burritos I’ve ever had. Between this breakfast burrito and the plantain and black bean burrito from The Little Chihuahua, I could definitely see living in San Francisco and eating burritos every day. Yum, yum, yum!
I also had a coffee, which is a bit unusual these days. The coffee at The Grind Café is great. And they served mine in a ‘Pittsburgh’ mug — what a coincidence!
We went on a vegan cheese finding adventure after breakfast — I wanted to get some Kite Hill cheese to bring home, since they only sell at Whole Foods in California. [Note: they just announced that they would be selling in Whole Foods in Oregon and Washington soon, so stay tuned for that].
With cheese in hand, I dropped Tish and Jason back at their house, said goodbye and headed to the airport, which is worth mentioning.
I was in Terminal 2 and there was a Plant Café there where I got a fresh green juice and a vegan blackberry lemon cupcake. I have *never* been to an airport that had a juice bar — heaven! The main reason I went to San Francisco (aside from visiting good friends) was to go to a farmed animal auction in the Central Valley — an experience I’ll share a bit of with you all soon. In the meantime, I’ve just been trying to catch up with work deadlines and sleep after quite a lot of travelling. Flying back into Seattle during the day is beautiful — and I was reminded how good it is to be home!
These look awesome (this breakfast one and the other) I feel like every time I visit San Francisco all I eat is burritos!
Looking forward to hearing about the auction. And when does the book discussion start up? Meatonomics is a pretty quick read.
I do love a burrito!
Book discussion starting up soon (probably next week!). Get ready! 🙂
