Milwaukee & Chicago, Vegan Style!

Jason met me in Milwaukee and I decided to do everything vegan that there was! We went out to breakfast at the Riverwest Co-op Cafe--french toast, biscuits & gravy, and shortbread. The french toast was the best, followed by the biscuits and then the shortbread--I kinda want to make a good version of vegan short bread now, but I think I'll put that project on hold.
This huge breakfast enabled us to not really overbuy at Vegan Essentials, an awesome online store based out of Wisconsin (near Milwaukee) that has a warehouse that they open to the public--it was pretty awesome!
We then headed to Chicago to meet up with some vegan friends. Unfortunately, I somehow forgot to photograph our faux chicken parm, mac and cheeze and amazing pb-chocolate chip cookie dough shake (all from the Chicago Diner). I was distracted by all the fun we were having! One of our friends had a pedi-cab--he rode us to the lake on it and it was quite an experience!!
