Feb. 23: Vegan cocktail night at Khyber Pass Pub

Attention, herbivores! The Southern-focused Khyber Pass Pub (56 S. Second St.) is hosting a veg/vegan-friendly evening of cocktails and savory snacks tomorrow, Feb. 23, beginning at 6 p.m. KPP is replacing its usual po'boy fillings - ordinarily a selection of fried chicken, oysters, roast beef and many other carnivorous options - with fried mac 'n' cheese, while also offering an entire chalkboard of vegetarian/vegan eats, like hearty sweet potatoes paired with vegan bourbon butter, toasted pecans (gotta hang onto that Southern swagger) and cane syrup. The vegan beverage/cocktail selection is large, with choices like the light-heartedly named "Natalie Portman Pucker," which might make one feel closer to PETA and those who support it. While we're on the topic of support, keep in mind that a big portion of proceeds this evening aids The Food Trust, which focuses on the available knowledge, accessibility and affordability of healthy food to the public. poncho Posted 2011-02-22 15:22:34
