“Sunlight Café is a Roosevelt institution. I've been coming here since before I could read and their incomparable sesame crunch waffles have set the standard for what I look for in a waffle anywhere else. Homey, hearty, and delicious, Sunlight is probably my favorite brunch spot in the city.”

Chipotle Tofu Burger

$19.50

A tofu patty with chipotle flavor makes this a savory burger.

“Great old-school vegetarian spot focused on simple ingredients rather than veggie 'meats'. Their coffee is great, their Yogi tea is great and the breakfast vegetables and tofu + tahini sauce is one of my top 5 meals anywhere! ***Update: The tempeh burger and chipotle tofu sandwiches are amazing! The Lasagne got rave reviews from my son and a (non veg) family member!”
