Your First Look at the New Dirt Candy
If you are curious about Dirt Candy, the hip new vegetarian restaurant by former Pure Food and Wine chef Amanda Cohen, than check out the blog Umamimart. They have posted a great first look at some of the food being served, like jalapeno hush puppies with maple butter, and stone ground grits with pickled shiitake and a tempura poached egg. I may love meat, but not a single one of the dishes they tried looked anything less than amazing.
