Quick stop in Macon, GA

On my way to Robins AFB for business, I got hungry so I stopped in Macon for lunch. I knew there was a vegan restaurant there and I wanted to try it out, especially since I probably wouldn't get to be vegan much of the rest of the week.

It's a nice little place. I opted for the buffet, so I could try several different dishes. I don't know if it was because I ate from the buffet or because I've been eating more raw recently, but everything seemed very soft to me, as in well-cooked, maybe over-cooked. If I can, I'll try their Warner Robins location this week which doesn' have a buffet and see if the texture is different.

Other than the "mushiness," I liked the food, especially the fake chicken. Nothing in the buffet was spicy, even though it looked like it. If I weren't trying to eat less spicy food, I would have been disappointed. The ginger beer was good, though. It's homemade and I was warned it was very strong. Maybe it's very strong for a typical american, but for someone like me who orders food hot at Asian and Indian restaurants, it was the flavor I was looking for! I thought it was just right.

Below are some pictures of the Macon Eden'z Vegetarian Restaurant.
