Hubby surprised me, I adore surprises, with reservations to the vegan French restaurant, Delice & Sarrasin in Chelsea. I didn’t even realize this was a thing! Apparently about 18 months ago this cute place switched from a traditional cream and meat heavy menu to a fully vegan one. We had such fun!
We started with the cheese plate, that was actually fantastic. They make all the cheeses in-house and we wanted more, it was so good!
I’m always hesitant with faux meat options as I don’t normally enjoy them much. But it’s faux meat or ratatouille here. I ordered the Poulet Basquaise and hubby got the Steak tartare vegetable accompagne de frites maison.
We were both pleasantly surprised and I didn’t mind the faux meat at all. My “chicken legs” even had sticks in them that startled me when I first cut into the dish.
Now we really want to go back and try their signature crepes. Maybe for brunch soon? Delice & Sarrasin gets five out of five vegan cupcakes. Delicious, adorable, and pushes me out of my comfort zone with yummer results. Definitely check it out.
