Help our veg-friendly Center City reader out
Just got this health-conscious query from a Meal Ticket reader: I need Meal Ticket's help! I have to buy lunch today and I want it to be a healthy, "clean" meal. Preferably dairy-free and carb-free or carb-light, heavy on the veg, even vegan if possible! Does such a thing exist in Center City??? Go 'head, smart readers!

Miss Rachel's Pantry is my new favorite vegan and vegetarian friendly lunch option. Rachel's Friday Lunch Club concept is amazing - she delivers homemade deliciousness right to your office. The only problem is, she only delivers on Friday. But I've taken to ordering Friday lunch on Monday because I love it so much! It won't work for today, but everyone needs to give her a try. http://www.missrachelspantry.com/The_Lunch_Club.html
I'd get falafel at Mama's Vegetarian. You can get half a whole wheat pita with falafel, cabbage, onions, tomatoes, cucumber, hummus, tzatziki sauce, and hot sauce for $3.50.

Blackbird vegan - not super health focused, but vegan Gianna's has a whole veg/vegan menu. Soups are the healthier options. I second Mi Lah, fantastic choice. Maoz - skip the fried and falafel and go for the "salad" bar (pickled baby eggplant!) FUEL - I think the center city location just opened. Great choice for low-cal high protein, veg-friendly energy Santa Fe - get the burrito bowl (=no carby tortilla), lots of veg options Finally, I know I'll get shouted down for this one, but I really love the control freak salad at Marathon. Except at that one, crappy cafeteria like location, the veggies are always super fresh and this salad will keep you full all day!
Su Xing at 1508 Sansom all vegan chinese.
Good question! Mi Lah Vegetarian (16th between Walnut/Locust) offers a ton of vegan options. I usually get something carby (the vegan cheesesteak) but their salads and entrees are a safe, satisfying bet.
Su Xing house (1508 Sansom) has some pretty awesome lunch specials. You could also just go to that new Chipotle (1512 Walnut) and get a burrito (or burrito bowl) without the dairy. Guacamole is super good for you! For Friday, you should definitely get Miss Rachel's Lunch club. It's awesome!
