    An eggplant parmigiana: the eggplant was mostly raw and barely heated, there was some greens based sauce that was just kale and oil blended or something, tasted awful, and a pretty simple tomato sauce that could have come out of a bottle.

    To this day I don’t understand how I didn’t blow up in vegan rage at being disrespected on such a fundamental “I want edible food” level. It wasn’t cheap either.

        Oh I know … it’s why I ordered it and why I should have marched back into the place and scolded the shit out of everyone who let it pass.

      Seconding that it’s a skill issue. Eggplants are fucking SOLID when done right.

      Grilled eggplant and roasted portobello burgers are amazing.
