orphan breakfast house has been around for at least a couple of years. so i'm not sure why i discovered only last week that i really ought to go there and try one of the several vegan options on their lunch menu. the one i decided to order when i went to lunch with my friend dee was the crispy noodles and crunchy vegetables, described on themenuas "pan-fried noodles in house ginger-soy sauce with bean sprouts, julienne carrots, shiitake mushrooms, celery and broccoli, topped with cilantro and scallions." for an extra cost, i added tofu to this flavorful dish. other vegan choices on the orphan lunchmenuincluded: single happiness, consisting of crisp brown rice grilled in ginger-soy with summer vegetables grilled in spicy orange chili oil, to which tofu may be added. nuevo latino roll ups, which consists of angel hair pasta grilled in ginger-soy and rolled in a whole wheat tortilla with spring greens, julienne vegetables, and bean sprouts. this dish is served with peanut sauce. wok f

lil' neighborhood restaurant. walking distance from mckinley park, this little restaurant has outstanding breakfasts and is a favorite of mine and my friends. brazilian coffee is packed with flavor. uniquemenuitems. i often order the gfy (granola, fruit, and yogurt) and have had the eggs lulu and pancake specials - one pancake special was made with coconut milk. my friends can't live without the rosemary bread (it is yummy). recently, the restaurant opened for lunch, and i had a flavorful veggie sandwich on squaw bread that did not disappoint. get there early on the weekends since there is often a wait for breakfast, and for good reason! highly recommend.
