So we had an awesome meatout lunch in the Cafeteria. Yup, 14 people had a meatless lunch today. Although some of them didn’t realize until after it came that the shrimp and duck weren’t really made from shrimp or duck! We ordered take out Dim Sum from Buddah Bodai in Chinatown and the very nice delivery guy rode his bike in the snow (yes, snow on the first day of spring) to bring us our feast. Of course I had to stick my camera in everyone’s lunch to capture the food awesomeness. Some dishes were less well received than others (fake meats aren’t everyone’s gig.) But I think we all had fun trying new things. Here are some favorites…
Shredded Shitake Mushroom with broccoli.
Veg chicken fried rice and a spring roll.
Sweet sticky rice ball with coconut.
Pan fried stuffed bean curd and mixed fruits pancake.
Florence and Cindy enjoying the sticky rice balls and fried bean curd.
Pan fried turnip cake.
Veg. chicken with Chinese green veg in black pepper sauce
Veg. duck noodle soup.
Dee, Christina, and Karen digging into veg duck soup, sticky rice, and 2 kinds mushroom congee.
Fried sticky rice.
Steamed watercress dumplings drenched in dumpling sauce.
Mixed vegetable pan fried noodles.
Dry sauteed veg beef chow fun.
Sticky rice wrapped in bamboo leaf.
And Kristen says of the vegan tofu cheesecake…”Oh, this isn’t too bad!”
All in all a totally fun vegan luncheon for meatout day. I gave out fruit leather, vegan gummy bears, and larabars as treats so everyone can have a vegan snack for later.
Peace out.
Vegan Dance if you want to 
How neat! I wish all my co-workers would have done that today! I sent out a company email asking them to refrain from meat. But I doubt that did them any good.
