Crossroads

If you live in Los Angeles, or are planning a trip in the near future, this post may possibly change your life (alright, sorry to be dramatic, I am just excited about the weekend).

A few weeks ago, my housemate Phoebe told me about this new plant-based restaurant that opened up in West Hollywood. It is essentially the first vegan fine-dining restaurant we have had in the LA area. For you New Yorkers out there, you may be familiar with Pure, which is also a fine dining raw and vegan restaurant. To date, the best meal I have ever had in my life came from Pure.

I am  happy to report that I have added a second meal to the "best meal I have ever had in my life" list. And, it came from Crossroads. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful on the inside, with a full bar and wine list. I did not have a drink that night, but I hear their drinks are fantastic. Their menu is tapas style, so you typically order a few dishes per person. I went with my mother and best friend, and we ordered 9 plates, including dessert. My favorite items from what we tried were the caramelized onion and lentil flatbread (they have a gluten-free option), the risotto stuffed pepper, and the "oyster shooters." If you go there, these two items are a must, and very unique to the restaurant.

Everything we had was delicious, and one of a kind. My friend Holland had the carrot cake ice cream for dessert, and she raved about it for days. I would add that to the list, if I were you. They had some fantastic "comfort" food items that I was dying to try, but had no more room in my stomach. A perfect excuse for another trip, right?

Some of you may not be interested in this post, as you aren't fans of vegan food. I get it, believe me. However, I can promise you that whatever your taste preferences are, you will love this restaurant, and you will never know that what you are eating is incredibly good for you.
