If you browse through Whirl‘s November issue with all of their best – prominently animal-based – dish picks, you wouldn’t think that it’s an event that a vegan would be interested in attending. Well this always curious vegan right here got all decked out in her Vaute Couture and headed to the Circuit Center and Ballroom in the South Side to check it out!

Being vegan for so long and living in a city that until semi-recently had limited options for vegans, I’m not used to having choices when dining out. Even now, depending on where I’m at, I might have to settle for a side salad and baked potato, or there will be one or two vegan possible dishes to choose from. So, when I was beckoned by booth after booth of the most amazing vegan food, I didn’t know how to choose!
Some of our spoils
Who doesn’t love tacos? I certainly do. We have tacos for dinner all. the. time. I don’t go out for them too often because I usually feel like the vegan taco option is such a simple one that I can just make it at home. Of course, I’m always down for Edgar’s! Those tacos are incredible.
