Every weekend at brunch, I look for the most unique vegetarian option on the menu. I've never been disappointed by a Twin Cities brunch yet, but these are the five dishes that stood out among the rest- delicious enough to recommend to any vegetarian adventurers looking for their next great brunch:
1. Breakfast Quesadilla at French Meadow.
French Meadow's breakfast quesadilla is unquestionably the best brunch dish in the Twin Cities. On top of fresh, organic ingredients, the dish's success centers on its amazing side flavors- guacamole, chipotle sour cream, and house-made salsa- which compliment every single bite perfectly.
Note: If you are hashbrown obsessed and ready to super-size your meal, try the breakfast burrito instead.
2. Apple Quinoa Cakes at Pizza Luce.
Not your mama's pancakes, Pizza Luce's apple quinoa cakes delight and titillate your sweet tooth. The cakes, topped with fruit and nuts, come with maple and coconut-butter syrup on the side, ready to drown your cares away and bring on a well-deserved sugar-induced coma.
3. Spinach Frittata at the Lowry.
The spinach frittata at the Lowry is like an open-faced omelet, but the magical kind. Covered in spinach, fresh herbs and mouth-watering tomatoes, the frittata puts a delightful spin on the common omelet by enhancing the flavors and texture beyond that of a typical egg dish. Plus the side of hashbrowns is awesome.
4. Potato Pancakes at Muddy Waters.
The potato pancakes at Muddy Waters are a foodie's dream- a fascinating combination of sweet and savory flavors. Topped with apple chutney, tallegio cheese, and creme fraiche, the dish's title of "pancake" seems like a misnomer for something so sophisticated and unique.
5. Yogurt Parfait at Loring Kitchen and Bar.
Sometimes all you want for brunch is a little yogurt, granola, and fruit, and Loring Kitchen and Bar is your place to get it. LKB's yogurt parfait is top-notch, from its fresh fruit to the ice cream sundae glass in which it is served. Also it goes well with the restaurant's bottomless mimosas...let the day drinking begin.
