A Day in D.C.!

A few days ago, my family and i went to Busboys And Poets in Washington D.C. Busboys and Poets isn't all vegan but they have alot of vegan items, like: Vegan Nachos, Pan-seared basil tofu and The Vegan. Which consists of vegan, mushrooms, onions, green and red pepper, vegan pepperoni on a whole-wheat crust. But it's not just savorie foods, you can also indulge in some vegan desserts, like: Vegan Cheesecake, Parfaits, Chocolate chip cookies and brownies served with vanilla ice cream, vegan of course. and fries of course were nommy, then again, i've never met a fry i didn't like. :) for dinner i had their veggie burger. But about half way through, my mom traded her falafel for my veggie burger becuase it was too spicy for me. The falafel was great! But the best falafel i've ever had was at Olive's on the campus of Princeton University in New Jersey. My dad had a pepperoni calsone and my bro had a fried PB& Agave sandwich.

Next, we ate our dessert at Sticky Fingers Bakery, also in Washington D.C. Sticky Fingers varies from cupcakes to cowvin cookies, all 100% vegan. They also make vegan lunches, brunches and more! You can get a grilled cheese, deli sandwiches, burritos, lasagna, patato salad, and even pancakes! All sticky fingers products are: 100% vegan, dairy/lactose-free, egg-free, cholesterol-free, low in saturated fat, made with heart-healthy soy and non-hydrogenated oils.

My cupcake is the coconut one, because i lovelovelove coconut! My mom had the stout cupcake which is the one with ganache and the dollop of buttercream frosting. My mom wanted to add " it's good for people who don't like sugary-sweet desserts, like me."
My brother enjoyed a peanut butter chocolate cupcake, which is the one with the chocolate drizzle and peanuts sprinkled on top. He says "I loved peanuts so it was dilish!"
And my dad had the red velvet cupcake, the one with the tiny red heart on the frosting.
Enjoy!
