Breakfast/Lunch:

Today I actually ate breakfast — shocking, I know! — really it was breakfast for lunch (even better!).  I had vegan french toast, vegan sausage, some fruit, and a soy latte.  It was really nice to have breakfast because I got to indulge in my love for maple syrup.  The more maple syrup, the better!  

The sausage was good — I was REALLY excited by it — but the french toast unfortunately didn’t live up to my expectations.  The crusts were rubbery and I don’t think the toast had actually had seen a hot cooking surface — it didn’t have that crisp, golden and slightly burnt surface you get from a grill or baking in an oven.  No char marks, no grill marks, no nothing.   It looked suspiciously microwaved or steamed.  I was really grateful the restaurant I was at offered vegan french toast, but it was seriously a few notches below the nonvegan french toast that the nonvegans were ordering, and I felt a little left out.  (I’ll just throw a pity party for myself!  It really wasn’t that bad — I just have high french toast standards!)  If you know of a place with good vegan french toast in San Francisco, drop me a line!  (Waffles would be most appreciated as well )
