Cheap Eats 2010

Who says vegan has to mean calorie-conscious? Vita Cafe's vegetarian, vegan and organic kitchen churns out comfort food with a sustainable twist. Many of the "meat" dishes at Vita are actually tofu, tempeh or seitan—along with the option of hormone-free beef burgers. But what's the fun in eating meat here? Order a seitan cheesesteak ($7.50) with a side of delicious Thai coconut soup. The best deals are to be had on Wednesday nights, when dishes like the creamy mac and (vegan) cheese are only $5.
