"Before you know it as the years go by, you're just like other people you have seen, with all those peculiar human ailments. Just another vehicle for temper and vanity and rashness and all the rest. Who wants it? Who needs it? These things occupy the place where a man's soul should be." -- Henderson the Rain King

Field Roast at the Elysian

From time to time I like to post about my favorite places and things to eat in Seattle. Tonight we ate at the Elysian Brewing Company, which in addition to having a great micro-brews, also offers a wide selection of vegetarian options. I ordered the BBQ Field Roast sandwich and a salad with a Wasabi Vinaigrette dressing, both of which were excellent as always.

In case you've never heard of it, Field Roast is a vegan lunch 'meat' that comes in Lentil Sage, Smoked Tomato, and Wild Mushroom flavors, all of which are quite tasty. We're fortunate enough to have the lunch meats as an option in our cafeteria at work, so I probably eat the stuff 2-3 times a week. It's that tasty. In addition to the lunch meats, they also make a Celebration Roast which functions as a great vegetarian substititue for Thanksgiving (or any time really) Turkey. Although it's produced by a local Seattle company, it looks like they've been expanding over the last few years, so there's a decent likelihood you can find it at a location near you. Well worth checking out if you ever get the chance.
