Thank you, CH!

I'm sure this board will be useful to me and many others. I'd like to start off by giving a shout out to the Woodfire Grill in Atlanta; I meant to post about my experience there last month on another thread, but never got around to it. DH and I were going to be in town for spring break, and our daughter had had a recent (non-vegan) meal there while visiting a friend. I called ahead and asked if they could accommodate a vegan, and they said "sure," Did they, ever! 5 course vegan tasting menu with wine pairings. Everything was sublime, and my omnivore husband enjoyed his meaty main, as well. I can't recommend this place enough.

Husband and I went mainly vegan in January, so absolutely thrilled to see this board. Thank you!

[gnats]

Huzzah! I read CH religiously before and after going vegan. This is just the cherry on top!

Thank you indeed! I'm a fairly new vegan on the Engine 2 plan. Engine 2 is also low fat and so my interest is low fat/no fat cooking and also tips on how to order at restaurants.

+1--years ago the then-management of Chowhound believed a vegetarian board was too "niche". Whether it's been rethought or there are just more of us, I'm delighted.

Thank you! Many of my friends are vegetarian & it's nice to know that I can come straight to this dedicated board for ideas!

This is great news. Many thanks. Although we are basically omnivores we Love our veggies too and have many meatless meals during the week.

This is very welcome news. Thank you!

I love the home cooking board but it is super exciting to have a vegetarian and vegan board, being vegan just got even more interesting I think.

Glad you're happy about the board, pikawicca. Remember, though, that posts about specific restaurants will still belong on the appropriate regional board (so a report on Woodfire Grill in Atlanta belongs on the Atlanta board).

If there are questions about this, feel free to ask them in this Site Talk thread: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/844507

Thanks!
