Oh, the joys of being able to order anything (and everything!) on the menu. I wasn’t even planning this, but we went for drinks with friends and when the talk came to dinner, my friend suggested we walk over to Blossom.
Now, it was dark and candle lit inside, but I just had to snap a photo of everything. I had to use the stupid flash, so I just took one shot for each dish and I’m going to post them all anyway. I had a few bites of some dishes before I remembered to take the photos. My friends were really good sports about me sticking my camera (and my fork) in their food.
Black-eyed Pea Cake – Crispy cake of yukon gold potatoes and black eyed peas, served with chipotle aioli.
Cape Cod Cakes – A blend of hiziki seaweed, tofu, potato, herbs and spices, served with a vegan tartar sauce.
Caesar Salad ~ Romaine lettuce & herbed croutons tossed in a creamy Caesar dressing, topped with herbed gomashio.
Port Wine Seitan ~ Seitan cutlets pan-seared in a sauce of port wine and mushrooms, accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes, tempura onion and sautéed garlic spinach.
Ravioli with Cashew Cream ~ Spinach, mushroom, and pine nut filling.
Baby Spinach Risotto ~ Shiitake & portobello mushrooms, caramelized pearl onions, and shiitake-crusted tofu, braised in a vibrant lemon confit.
Seitan Skewers ~ Flame-grilled skewers basted with a rich hickory sauce, accompanied by jicama slaw.
Chocolate Ganache
Coconut Lavender Creme Brule
Every dish was fantastic, and the port wine seitan was absolutely out of this world. The photos don’t do any of the dishes justice, so if you’re in New York City, definitely check out Blossom. I will be back again soon.
Vegan Dance if you want to 
That looks so good! I know this sounds ridiculous but I feel like I would give anything for some vegan tartar sauce. It can't be that hard to make but I never had and man that sounds so good.:c)
