Went to this great little all vegetarian joint in wicker park with a friend last night. Its a lot more fun to have a co conspirator in your hunt for good veggie food.
Since this place doesn't do reservations we waited for about 10-15 mins for a table. Its a small place but very warm and cosy. They have small plates for sharing which is perfect so you can try a lot more stuff.

In cold plates we ordered the Quinoa with almonds, tangerine, mint and currants and the Beet and Apple salad with a raspberry vinaigrette. For hot plates we ordered Mana mini sliders made with mushroom and brown rice and the Saag Paneer.
1st Impression: What a great place!! Its cute and I loved the bar stools. Everything on the menu looked so good, it took us a while to decide what to get.
2nd Impression: The Quinoa was great, lightly flavored with a lot of texture. The beet and apple salad was yum. The sliders were good but a little bland for my taste. The Saag Paneer the one I was most skeptical about turned out to be the highlight of the meal. The spinach was not blended in like regular palak paneer but just thrown in a mixture of rice, paneer in a yummy yogurt based paste.
Icing: Everything was great
So? We have to go back to try the yummy sake and fruit cocktails and the 20 other things on the menu.
