One of my favorite parts of working at Great Sage is meeting new people and hearing about their experiences with a vegan diet. Whether it be longtime vegans, newbies or those who are simply curious about the lifestyle, there is usually a great story involved! I recently had the pleasure of meeting Doris Robbins and Pat Johnson here at the restaurant, and they did not disappoint. Both mother and daughter recently went vegan after attending a talk by Dr. Neil Barnard, founder of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.

Last week, I had the pleasure of dining in my favorite restaurant in Howard County, Great Sage. I was there for a meetup of the Baltimore Animal Rights Network, and we chose this venue to enjoy the live music of the band Brave Noise. They were really great, and fortunately, since we were seated in the back of the restaurant, the music didn’t preclude conversation. We were all super excited to see new winter items on the menu! Here is a brief description of the delicacies we sampled:

I couldn’t resist the Raw Samosas, as I love all things Indian! They were described as “Garam Masala spiced cauliflower and pea purée wrapped in curried zucchini wraps.
