Vegans take Manhattan.

On November 3, Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby of Horizons (611 S. 7th St.) will become the first vegan chefs to work the hallowed line at the James Beard House in New York City.� The pair has fired off their tentative menu to JBH, which you can check out in all its cruelty-free glory after the jump.

Appetizers will be passed around at a 7 p.m. cocktail reception; the sit-down portion of the meal, complete with wine pairings for each of the five courses, begins at 8 p.m. Prices have not yet been posted for the event.�� Call the Beard House at 212.627.2308 or 800.36BEARD for reservations.

i really like how this menu shows restraint on the fake meat tip, focused instead on vegetables - familiar and exotic - done right. hooray for horizons! show those new yorkers what's up.
