Although Hungry Pants isn’t completely vegan, they aim to be a step towards plants and alternative meat sources for the omnivores/carnivores. They call it plant-curious. The idea is that you can still enjoy your favorite comfort foods in a slightly healthier form. (This is the MPD–most delicious potatoes– sweet potato with the cilantro aioli option to make it vegan, and French fries with Florida Man seasoning.)
The couple that started Hungry Pants also started a gourmet cupcake food truck in Orlando.
And the restaurant is adorable.
This is the CLT sandwich, curry lime-marinated tempeh, arugula, avocado, and cilantro aioli on grilled wheat bread with a side of broccoli slaw (broccoli tossed in a creamy cranberry dressing topped with raisins). The kale Caesar salad is in the background (cashew crumble, sourdough croutons, and massaged kale with miso-Caesar dressing).
And chocolate pie for dessert!
