food

All our food is vegetarian. (v) = vegan.

Salads

In season we grow all our own organic salad greens in our greenhouses and gardens. Depending on availability this may include several of the six types of heritage lettuce, mizuna, parsley pea tops, arugula, green and purple mustards, kale, sugar snap peas and radishes or purple turnip. Our house salad is a mixture of fresh greens with our house dressing of organic olive oil and balsamic vinegar and our famous hand-cut coleslaw. Vegan coleslaw made with our own vegan mayo is available on request.
