You Can Burn The Candle At Both Ends After This Meal
I admit, I rarely venture North of 21st Street unless it’s for work or a run in Central Park…and even then, I feel like I need my passport (I’m being dramatic). However, I’ll make a trip to the Upper East Side any day for a chance to eat at one of NYC’s greatest health spots.
Candle Cafe, located at 1307 Third Avenue , serves seasonal organic vegan cuisine with a focus on sustainability, eco-friendly practices and compassion for animals (menu also includes a large range of gluten free items). Although my go-to is the Ginger Miso Stir-Fry ($15), I can see the Tuscan Lasagna made with grilled zucchini and tofu basil ricotta ($16) as the perfect cold weather dish.
Don’t think that you’ll be stuck slugging down H2O with your tofu. Candle Cafe also offers fresh blended smoothies, mixed green veggie juices, natural sodas (think Maine Root Ginger Brew) and organic wines/beers.
This place sounds awesome. I’m going to try it out! Thanks for the suggestion!
