Their food is stupid good. I want vegan soft serve on an IV drip.

I love their vegan milkshakes, though I should probably stick with their healthier options, like amazing organic juices and smoothies.
Chaos Cafe
Our Sunday morning jam! Great breakfast, lunch, dinner along with a cool space in the SE. Try the beet burger. Dag!
When in the SE, check out Grant Dixon’s fine fixins. They’re vegan, all organic, and GMO-Free. If you feel like you have enough pesticides in your diet, go check ‘em out. Nice.
Delish vegan Chinese food. I think they still have some dairy ice cream there, but the main food is good to go.
