I don't write a lot of restaurant reviews. Heck, I don't know that I even know how to write one. But here goes.
We've got a few locally owned eateries around and about that we like to go to when we get the hankering for food we don't have to prepare.
One is a place we've only been to a handful of times over the past few years. It's pretty close, ten miles or so from us, and reasonably priced, too. But for whatever reason, I haven't been to Blue Planet since we went Vegan in April.
Yesterday we dropped in for lunch. I hadn't scanned the menu before for Vegan friendly foods. And I was really surprised to see how many Vegan items there were available. The staff members were extremely friendly and helpful.
While we waited for our lunch we sat near the kitchen. Couldn't help but notice a couple of the cooks having a great time. Don't you just love seeing people love their jobs? I do. Anyhoo. The food prep included a few riffs on the air guitar and some songs. I overheard a conversation about smiles between two cooks and the owner/manager (a guess). When our Vegan Caprisi pizza was delivered I understood the conversation and we had to smile.
Caprisi v vg $7.99 Natural Italian sauce, slices of tomato, basil, and natural mozzarella or vegan cheese
Why? Well, because a) they had plastered the thing with smiles. b) and because it was delicious.
So. If you are ever in the Omaha area, give them a visit. Good stuff, and good attitudes = smiles for all.
