Tree Yields Vegetables

If there's one thing the French know how to do right, it's wine. And mustard. And chocolate. And pastries. And cheese. And bread.

...ok, maybe that wasn't just one thing. Let's be honest, the French are damn good at food. However, the staples of French cooking tend to be rather vegan unfriendly. That's what peaked my interest in Tree, a French restaurant claiming to have vegetarian and vegan friendly options. A French restaurant? With vegan food? Quoi?

Of course, they also serve plenty of meat, and dairy and such, but every night the chef creates a new vegan dish for the night. On the night I was there the option was root vegetables and greens with a pomegranate glaze. Délicieux.
