Today, my daughter Jessie and I set out on an adventure that brought us to the most delightful little vegetarian/vegan cafe in Orlando.

Dandelion communitea cafe

To allow us to taste-test a wider variety of foods from the Dandelion Communitea Cafe's menu, we ordered two different meals then shared the items. One was a quinoa native mama mix and a cup of vegetarian chili with blue corn chips. The curryous dressing added the most wonderful subtly spicy flavor to the quinoa/veggie mix. The perfectly seasoned chili complemented the dish.

The second meal was a bean there done that wrap (or optional salad without the whole wheat tortilla) that was bursting with black beans, white beans, goat cheese, and raw veggies with a side of fresh pineapple chunks. We topped off all of this nutritious goodness with an oh-so-yummo hemp and flax granola vanilla soygurt raspberry parfait.

They have rightfully earned their recognition for "the best vegetarian", "teahouse", and "whatever."
