When I visited No Milk Today for a weekday lunch excursion, I came craving my personal plant-based comfort foods. The restaurant is best known as a cure for any vegan’s sweet tooth with their wide selection of baked goods made fresh each morning or available for party-sized customized order. However, I did not realize that their sin-free sweet taste also penetrates into their savory selections.
Pumpkin Walnut Vegan Quiche
I happened to arrive when their rotating flavors daily flavors of salty and sweet tart selection were exactly to my taste. Their faux-eggy pumpkin walnut vegan quiche was served with a smile alongside a simple salad. This subtly sweet vegan baker’s delight left my palate primed for dessert.
Decadent Chocolate Vegan Cheesecake
I followed my meal with a double-chocolate. From the café’s satisfying selection of sweets, I chose their best-selling vegan cheesecake made on a chewy chocolate crust and topped with a crumbly cocoa layer. This decadent dessert “always sells out”, according to my cheery waitress. I accompanied my cake with No Milk Today’s specialty nutty hot chocolate – a warm beverage of creamy oat’s milk, rich chocolate, and melting peanut butter.
