  • I rarely go there but when I do I get a veggie delight with lettuce, tomato, black olives, cucumbers, onions, and a little bit of oil and red wine vinegar.
  • I wouldn't call myself vegan yet but I cut out cheese about six months and I have felt great. I've been vegetarian since November of 2003. It was a life changing experience.
