The best thing I ate today - 9/6

The best thing I ate today was the Ensalada Azteca Salad that I had for lunch at the new Native Foods Cafe in Wicker Park.  They are trying to branch out of their vegan-loving stomping grounds and break into the overly carnivorous market of Chicago.  To do this profitably, they are going to need to source from outside their Vegan roots and attract those customers living on the second ring of this bullseye - people who enjoy health, fresh food and don't always need to eat meat when they go out.   I LOVED my salad.  It was interesting, fresh and delicious with little gems like avocado, jicama, pumpkin seeds, quinoa and a mango vinaigrette.  Challenge accepted and conquered.  Maybe next time I will try the seitan or native chicken...or not.
