Restaurants - Atlanta, GA.....number 4
Cafe Sunflower is another wonderful veggie meal if you are in the ATL. This one is more on the north side, located at 5975 Roswell Rd. It is a fully vegetarian restaurant and MOST of their stuff can be made vegan. It is a little hard to find, but is in a strip mall behind a BP Station; the Hammond Springs Shopping Center. Their menu is fresh and innovative, with most of the traditional favorites. Their "Starters" include Spaghetti Squash Cakes, Sandy Spring Rolls, Basil Rolls, Dumplings, Potstickers, Stuffed Mushrooms, and Hummus; among others. Their "Salads" are varied, but the best one is called "Garden Steak Salad" which includes homemade Soy Pepper Steak. The menu also lists which items are Dairy Free and which are Wheat free. In the "Entrees" section they have some of the favorites; Spicy Pad Thai Noodles, Sweet and SOur Soy Chicken, Black Bean Burrito, Soy Burger, Chili, and a Quesadilla. Their Entrees also include Stuffed Mushrooms, Jamaican Black Bean Cakes, Baked Samosas, Lasagne, Fettuccine, Stuffed Acorn Squash, and several Stir Fries. For dessert they have several cakes; some of which are vegan and they have Soy Ice Cream. This place was not as good as Soul Vegetarian, Harmony, or Green Sprout, but it still makes for a good meal if you are in the area. 404-256-1675 www.cafesunflower.com

Micah, what are your experiences with asking for the meat to be left out of dishes? Won't most Indian and Asian restaurants leave out the meat and thus give you a vegetarian dish? I know that fish sauce is a staple in Thai cuisine and is obviously a concern to you. Isa there an equivalent in Indian cuisine?
For instance, if I was in some odd town at a family reunion...maybe in Alabama or somewhere...and I needed to find a vegetarian meal, where would you tell me to go? Would you go to a grocery store or chance a restaurant?
