I love the bright yellow or ruby colored flesh--very refreshing. Would you like to learn to cook some Mexican pinto beans without lard, etc.? Then check my blog. I'm not a vegan, but I think you'll enjoy the recipe.Clementinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15298877166086971726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-583023432907990825.post-90225926863627034432008-04-05T12:47:00.000-07:002008-04-05T12:47:00.000-07:00This place sounds awesome!

If you ever find yourself in San Diego, there's a totally authentic mostly vegan/vegetarian Mexican restaurant downtown called Pokez that's AMAZING. They have all the vegan/veg stuff clearly labeled on their menu, and all the waitstaff make sure to ask "do you want that made vegan?" when you order something that could go wither way; maybe Cinnamon could learn a thing or two from them? ;)TBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05644211871681782561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-583023432907990825.post-77842054947457860232008-04-02T10:38:00.000-07:002008-04-02T10:38:00.000-07:00I have a serious weakness for salsa and am always ...I have a serious weakness for salsa and am always seeking out good stuff.. if only I lived in LA!Vegan_Noodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15946796454115691643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-583023432907990825.post-30050825621955784072008-03-30T21:47:00.000-07:002008-03-30T21:47:00.000-07:00wait, so the waiter at the vegetarian restaurant d...wait, so the waiter at the vegetarian restaurant doesn't know what VEGAN is? um, time to kick someone in the face!!!<BR/><BR/>hmm, i've never had an authentic-looking vegan mexican meal before. it's weird to see tofu on a mexican plate, but it is definitely welcome in my book! and brown rice too! awesome.Ruby Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14236226397237084651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-583023432907990825.post-71337369811561302432008-03-29T10:41:00.000-07:002008-03-29T10:41:00.000-07:00Just to clarify, Cinnamon is a 100% vegetarian res...Just to clarify, Cinnamon is a 100% vegetarian restaurant, so there was no fear of lard, chicken stock, or other things of that nature. We were only worried about hidden dairy, such as whey and casein, in the vegetarian, but not vegan items.Jenni (aka Vegyogini)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04248320434337952085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-583023432907990825.post-62137052389471257342008-03-29T07:34:00.000-07:002008-03-29T07:34:00.000-07:00Ok, so you HAVE to know how jealous I am of your m...Ok, so you HAVE to know how jealous I am of your meal. You got prickly pears!!!!! You know how much this Missourian wishes we could get prickly pears? Wow, I really am a nerd, but the food truly looks fantastic.
