A new joint opened up in our neck of the woods – Olga’s On Smith. Finally a place to get a coffee right on our block! Olga’s serves up healthy, kosher, and delicious fare, in a really nice and elegantly simple little storefront just up the street. (401 smith). There are a number of vegan, dairy free and/or gluten-free items.

I’ve been hitting them up for breakfast and lunch lately and I have a few favorites from their menu. Namely the Israeli couscous salad with mint (pictured below), the vegetarian lasagna and my favorite of favorites the pan fried eggplant in a pita with vegan dill sauce (also shown below). Unfortunately I’ve also become helplessly addicted to their Hungarian raspberry shortbread. Why shortbread? why did you have to come into my life?

eggplant sandwich. Going to get one today. YUM!
