Homegrown Kitchen

Veggie lovers who were dismayed over the closure of Merge on Delaware Avenue a while back can dry their eyes: while not everything at Homegrown Kitchen is 100% animal product-free, vegans are well cared for on an extensive menu encompassing build-your-own salads, a selection of non-dairy smoothies, and plenty in between. (And if honey is on your "okay to eat" list, you're in luck: the avocado sesame tofu salad, topped with crispy wontons and honey sesame dressing, is a real crowd-pleaser!) The place is set up to grab-and-go, but if you prefer to indulge onsite, the dining room sports a rustic yet modern decor, and there's even an indoor porch swing as seating! The main downside is a price point that's on the high side, a problem that's exacerbated by stingy portions.
