I'm fine with kale, sauteed similarly to sauteed spinach in garlic and olive oil, or raw in salads along with other greens. But the whole avocado/acai/blueberry/quinoa/tofu stuff is just not to my liking at all.
I really REALLY wish someone from Claire Criscuolo's family would come down from New Haven and open up a REAL vegetarian restaurant. Not vegan, not "plant-based." Just vegetarian - which can include eggs and dairy.
Claire's Corner Copia
My #1 choice for lunch there was:
House salad with feta cheese and tahini dressing. It came with a mini-loaf of bread, fresh from the oven, and a pat of butter. In the winter, hot mulled apple cider to drink; in the summer, just ice water with a couple of lemon slices and a few drops of honey. For dessert - her insanely rich, decadent carrot cake OR her Lithuanian coffee cake, which tasted just the way my mom used to make it.
