Attempting to be Vegan When Celebrating my Birthday

My mom took me to Blue Sage Vegetarian Grille to celebrate my birthday. This 100% vegetarian restaurant is located on 772 2nd Street Pike in Southampton, Pennsylvania. The vegan items are labeled on the menu as well as the items that can be made dairy free. I wasn't crazy about the tartare but the empanadas and hazelnut toffee basket were delicious.

The tartare comes with avocado, red lentils, roasted corn, fresh basil, ginger and coco malanga dipping chips. I think adding more avocados would have improved this dish.

Three masa-potato empanadas with roasted red peppers-pumpkin seed pesto fillings atop pickled giant white beans, gazpacho sauce, and heirloom tomato-avacado salad.

 The Hazelnut Toffee Basket comes with Chocolate buttercream, bruleed bananas, Hazelnut toffee tuille, and chopped hazelnut topping. The waiter assured me that this was made vegan.
