New entries to the line-up, including acorn braised winter squash with ginger teriyaki, tempura seasonal vegetables with chipotle aioli and sweet barbeque sauce, shepherd’s pie with roasted garlic potatoes and grilled “chicken” alfredo in a garlic cream sauce, join restaurant favorites, such as the arugula flatbread, roasted portabella and green coconut curry, to create a diverse menu that is inventive and decadent, without any meat, fish, chicken or dairy.
