I'm a few weeks behind on writing this review, but the dining experience is still fresh in my mind. I once again participated in Bridget W.'s next "Eat Your Veggies!" UYE. https://www.yelp.com/events/sacramento-uye-eat-your-veggies-village-of-om?ytl_=05e0de3f37c14b858a82b9a2b105e894&utm_medium=email&utm_source=email_event_reminder&utm_campaign=Jan-22-2025 We arrived at this very nice, modern and romantic feel of a restaurant that specializes in plant based cuisine. The menu offers an appetizing variety of vegan style sushi dishes, salads, soups, noodles, tofu, and other veggie items.
My Yelp dining companions included Bridget W., David O., Jenny P. and Alex T. We all had a hard time making our final ordering decisions from the tempting menu. I ordered the Nigiri Sampler: Seared Eggplant, Sautéed Trumpet Mushroom, Just Tamago, Lions Mane Mushroom, and Roasted Red Pepper (1 pc each). However, they were already out of the Lions Mane Mushroom, so I selected another Eggplant to replace it. It was very good, but after consuming it within a few minutes, I realized I was still hungry! Silly me for not ordering something else to go with it! Fortunately, my friends let me share their Burmese Chopped Salad. Which consisted of: Tea Leaf Salad w/ Lettuce, Cabbage, Tomatoes, Jalapenos, Chickpeas, Split Peas, Pumpkin Seeds, and Fermented Tea Leaves w/Pesto Dressing. The salad needed a little more dressing, as we commented to the wait staff that it was a little dry. But I was Ok with it, since I was so hungry! LOL! I also ordered a Mocktail My Tai with Pineapple, orange juice and grenadine. It was very tasty!
Everyone enjoyed their food. The nice wait staff even gave us a couple of complimentary chocolate mousse desserts to share! It was a nice finale to our meals! We have already talked about returning again to try other menu selections.
