Arbol Caf�'s new vegetarian menu
"Carnivores, please see other menu!" advises a note at the top of Arbol Caf�'s new all-veg selection. The Paraguayan eatery (209 Poplar St., 215-923-3150), we which just "Where'd We Eat"-ed yesterday, rolled this entirely separate menu out about two weeks back, and it's no one-dish-and-done situation � there are entire hot and cold sandwich selections, plus salads, potato dishes and "tortillas Paraguaya," rice, onion and cheese patties bound with milk, egg and flour and stuffed with veggies (kinda like a quesadilla).

I agree completely with Miss L. This city certainly does not need more eggs, cowmilk, and fish on its menus. If a restaurant wants to attract folks who don't eat meat, it should think about adding vegan items to its menu. The vegan community in Philly loves to eat delicious and diverse food; we also love to support restaurants that expand their menus with us in mind. Try again, Arbol...?
I was excited when I saw this tweet but it's disappointing to see that there are no vegan options on the "vegetarian" menu aside from two salads, which might not even be vegan depending on the dressing. Also, they have fish on this menu which isn't vegetarian. I hope that the chef chooses to add more vegan options in the future.
I saw the menu and have been to the cafe, perhaps the vegans can omit the eggs, milk, cheese, bread, honey and ask for just veggies. It's a cafe, not a restaurant, and the owners are more than happy to accomodate with the ingredients they have on hand. They also have non dairy cheese & mayo. I know the dressing is vegan and delicious.
