If you aren’t excited by the sight of quotation marks in the title of a menu item (say, “chicken” nuggets or “pot roast”), then you probably won’t appreciate the concept of Shaw’s Soul Vegetarian. The all-vegan international chain is a citywide destination for seitan and soy cheese addicts, serving up a rotating menu of palatable meatless and dairy-free iterations of soul food classics. Sure, entrees like Bean Curd Roast and Wheat Loaf are acquired tastes, but even die-hard meat eaters can appreciate the unexpectedly creamy Soy Mac & Cheese, flavorful Tofu Yeung patties and crazy-good Sweet Potatoes with organic brown sugar. The meager four-table, reggae-thumping dining area seems to invite all patrons to carry out, and the final tab might seem a tad high at first glance - that is, until you realize that the heaping $10 Double Entrée Plate can easily feed two.
