"West Midtown’s staple tapas restaurant, Cooks & Soldiers, has vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free menu options — you have to request the vegan variation. Choose from grilled tapas like smoked local mushrooms, coal-roasted eggplant, and Basque pepper stew. Drop in for happy hour Monday to Friday from 5 to 6 p.m. for $5 gin and tonics." - Beth McKibben, Henna Bakshi
