There is no way that I could write a blog about Vegan cooking without giving kudos to my favorite vegan restaurant in Chicago- Karyn’s Cooked.
Karyn’s Cooked is mottoed as being “conscious comfort food.” My hubby introduced me to this restaurant when we first started dating back in 2008 and I have been hooked every since.
Karyn’s has a nice romantic atmosphere with the dimmed lights and lit candles at every table. The restaurant is always busy and the service goes above and beyond. Karyn’s is hip, vegan and gourmet all rolled into one.
I want to share with you my favorite dishes that I enjoy when I eat at Karyn’s.
My favorite items at Karyn’s:
*Vegan Pizza $10.00
Traditional vegan pizza on thin whole-wheat crust, homemade soy cheese, tasty marinara sauce, seitan and veggies*Buffalo wings $9.00
