Though I love, even crave vegetables, full disclosure, I’ve never been to a plant based restaurant.  It never seemed to me that a meal could be totally satisfying without meat (you know what a carnivore I am!), chicken or fish. The turning point was a lunch at  Planta Queen in Coconut Grove, with a menu inspired by Executive Chef David Lee’s favorite dishes from across Asia. Hmmm, thoughts of new twists on sushi, dumplings, bao buns. Would they be delicious and exciting? Yes, they were, very. My girlfriend thought the same.
