For Thanksgiving this year, hubby treated me to a four-course meal at Plum Bistro, a vegan restaurant in Seattle. Most restaurants were closed today, but Plum had a special prix fixe menu. Hubby thought it would be nice to eat without cooking or cleaning up. He was right!
We started our meal with roasted heirloom carrots and Brussels sprouts with a maple and thyme glaze. I could have gone home happy at this point, but there was more.
Our appetizer was Plum’s famous smoky mac and yease. It was creamy and delicious–vegan comfort food at its finest.
For the main course, we dined on smoked seitan roast with gravy and cornbread stuffing. The stuffing, with cranberry reduction on the side was so satisfying I didn’t need dessert.
But when dessert came–a bourbon chocolate pecan pie–I didn’t hesitate to devour it. It was drizzled with caramel, covered with a dollop of smooth, dairy-free whipped cream, and garnished with pomegranate seeds and a pecan.
I have a lot to be thankful for, and this meal was no exception! I enjoyed a cruelty-free meal and I loved seeing everyone in the packed restaurant enjoying healthy, vegan food too.
I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. If you’re in Seattle, you’ve got to visit Plum!

Goodness this looks so good! I camethisclose to ordering a Thanksgiving meal, but when it came down to it we made everything. One day I will give in and just let someone else do all the cooking. It sounds and looks fabulous!
I found out later that also offer catering! That’s a great way to go! I usually make a pie or potato dish and go to a vegan potluck for Thanksgiving. I missed the people, but it sure was nice not having to prepare anything.
