I'm back! - MINT TULIP

Yes, as a matter of fact, I have spent the past two years in an alternate reality - and couldn't get a blog post in!

I am back, and going to start over again.

I have got to rave about the newest Vegan Restaurant that has just opened in the Albuquerque University area: Mint Tulip.

The Particulars: Their hours are 8-4, Monday through Saturday. Located at 2110 Central Ave SE 87106 [the old 20 Carrots locaton]

I have only been able to dine in once, so far. But I am so pleased with my first menu choice that I give then a two thumbs up review already.

I odered the Buffalo Ranch wrap, with chips and salsa for my side. Wow, is all I can say. I am no food critic [unfortunately!] but I know what I like. I would definitely order this again, once i make my way though the rest of the menu! Please note that I forgot to take the photo until I had already eaten 1/2 of my lunch!!!






Speaking of the menu, I liked what I saw - and I'm hoping they'll post it online soon. There was more to choose from than I can remember, but here's an incomplete list:
Oatmeal
Breakfast Cereals
Burritos
Hot Dogs
Chicago Dogs
Grilled Veggie Sandwiches
Veggie Burgers [House-made]
Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Fluffer Nutters
PB&J's
Fresh Squoze Orange or Grapefruit juices
Vegan Soft Serve Dessert, Sundaes, Nana Splits/etc
AND MORE!

They have several accompaniments to choose from when selecting sandwiches - if you're not a chips & salsa fan.

They have a Facebook profile here and also a twitter presence.

I say "Yay, it's about time Albuquerque got another wonderful, all-vegan restaurant!!" Go there as soon and as often as possible - let's keep this business open and prosperous!

Next time I will be writing about Thai Vegan, another super fantastic new Albuquerque Vegan restaurant.
