Old Wives Tale Restaurant




Had a wonderful dinner with my friend Madrona at Old Wives Tale. This restaurant is always a safe bet to find veggie and gluten-free meals that you can add omnivor add-ons if you like. She had BRAISED VEGETABLES (Parsnips, rutabagas, yams, napa cabbage, red onion, white beans and roasted red pepper braised with apple juice, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, tamari and cornstarch) with a side of taters all of which tasted delicious. And I had CHIPOLTE ADOBO VEGETABLES (Very spicy melange of yams, zucchini, corn, fire-roasted red peppers, onion, cilantro, lime juice, epazote, oregano, coriander, cumin, garlic, a pinch of sugar and canola oil, garnished with salsa fresca and tortilla chips) with a side of black beans. It, too, was very tasty. And we shared a house salad with a cucumber vinegrette.
