During a recent trip to Ohio we visited our favorite vegan restaurant...which is also the only vegan restaurant we've ever eaten at intentionally, One Thirty Eight in Tiffin, Ohio.
Here's what the folks on Yelp have to say about the restaurant, also known as Phoebe's, click here.
What inspired a couple of overweight carnivores to dine on sprouts and kale? Well, the owner is also my favorite brother-in-law, Mike Pinkston. He's also a darned good cook as those who have attended Thanksgiving at the 'po in Ada, Ohio can attest.
I had a cup of fabulous tomato basil soup---so fresh. I also had an Asian stir fry with rice. I don't remember the name, sorry. Very tasty and filling.
Chris had a black bean burger sort of wrap thing. I don't know why more restaurants don't invite me to do reviews since I clearly have a handle on all the foodie terms.
My mother-in-law, Kate, joined us and she had the same dish I had. She was a clean-plater.
In addition to enjoying a healthy lunch and awesome company, we got a tour of the renovations taking place at the building next door. In just a few months, little ol' Phoebe's is going to transform from a lunch place to One Thirty Eight, a fancy, full service restaurant serving fresh, delicious, local food (including some meat, I've been told) for lunch and dinner. They are taking reservations for Christmas parties...hohoho.
