Fud

FUD

One of the food highlights of our weekend was FUD {pronounced “food”}. FUD is an organic and local, all-vegan restaurant located in the Westside neighborhood of Kansas City, right around the 17th & Summit area.

Seriously, Westside has the best restaurants in KC hands down! (Blue Bird, Westside Local, and Fresher than Fresh snow cones, just to name a few).

FUD opened in April of 2010 by chef Heidi VanPelt-Belle.  It’s a bright, colorful, and intimate restaurant with a very laid back feel.

The kitchen, where all the magic happens:

We started our meal with a Sunrise Juice made from freshly juiced oranges, carrots, beets, apples, and ginger.

Such a beautiful color, and so delicious! As I mentioned in my last post, I love the color beets add to fresh juices.

I got the Avocado Wich:

“One half an Avocado with Violet Onion, seasonal sliced vegetables & Greens topped with Dillanayz & Thrillanayz on Cracked Wheat Bread”

I had no idea an avocado sandwich could taste so good!! This sandwich is full of flavor, and basically amazing.

 And Erik got the breakfast burrito filled with tons of delicious veggies such as potatoes, bell peppers and Portobello mushrooms.Huge, and delicious!!

 

We ended up swapping our meals halfway through so we could both enjoy each dish.

Basically, we love Fud! Their menu has such delicious sounding items, I can’t wait to try more. I would definitely recommend it, whether you’re vegan/vegetarian or not. Things to note: Fud is a cash or check-only establishment so make sure you stop by the ATM first, or bring a check book!

  

Hope everyone is enjoying their Monday.  We had homemade veggie burgers for dinner complete with some chocolate vegan cupcakes …

I don’t ever tire of chocolate desserts!
