Maimonides of Brooklyn (MOB) - Boerum Hill, Brooklyn
Interior dining area of MOB

Their menu comes with it’s own MOB comic book. They make “cheesecake” by culturing almond milk with probiotics. Need I say more? Well, yes, I should. The menu is simple, in a good way. The MOB’s are amazing – my favorites are the Iron Man and The Belly Charmer (pictured below). But this special one, made by chef Neal Harden, is not on the menu. It features avocado, zucchini and tomato with olive tapenade. The bread is a crispy and soft flatbread (which also comes gluten-free) that is shaped like the arches of the Brooklyn Bridge and out of this world. The presentation of these are really cool. The quinoa salad is refreshing and filling. Kale chips are served like tortilla chips at a mexican restaurant and you can have as many as you want. And as it turns out are super simple to make (recipe after the photographs). I’m not a vegan but if I ate at this place everyday, I’d have no complaints.
