Sam Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I want to buy a friend of mine who is on bedrest a gift certificate for take-out. She is vegetarian, so ideally some place with lots of vegetarian options. It does not have to be delivered as there is a person who can pick it up. Does anybody have any suggestions, specifically in DC near Penn Quarter? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlohmann Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 A bit afield from Penn Quarter but Java Green is a great veggie carryout and is on 19th between K and L - - asian-influenced veggie and vegan things w/some dishes with faux-meat but many without! I love their food. I want to buy a friend of mine who is on bedrest a gift certificate for take-out. She is vegetarian, so ideally some place with lots of vegetarian options.

sheldman Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 There is a Taylor Gourmet at 5th and K NW that would deliver or could be picked up. I know there is some non-Taylor-love from some folks on the board, but I still think that their veg sandwiches are awesome (broccoli rabe sandwich, nice) and there are good salads etc. too. Menu available online if you want to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anybody have any suggestions, specifically in DC near Penn Quarter? Thanks! this question came up once before, so I will make the same suggestion I made then: consider looking for a private chef instead of a restaurant. That way your friend on bedrest is more likely to get meals delivered that she will really enjoy, and will have more variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know how to retrieve the earlier topic? Meanwhile, I will probably make the same recommendation I made before: Soupergirl. Vegan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
