California has, of course, always been a place where you find more health-conscious food choices than on the east coast
or in any other part of the country. But a vegan sandwich stand is still something a bit out of the ordinary - even for CA standards. The Stand is located just ½ block off Pacific Coast Highway (CA 1) in Laguna Beach. The extensive and colorful menu has all sorts of delicious choices for burgers, wraps, burritos, pita pockets, full entrees, as well as a vast selection of smoothies. This place is truly a vegan and vegetarian paradise, because the food selections are not limited to just tofu, but includes all sorts of vegetables and preparation styles to provide true variety.
For our lunch we had a potato burrito, a bean burrito, an avocado and hummus pita pocket (pictured on the right), and a peanut butter cookie, as well as a few delicious smoothies.
The only small disappointment was that we would have expected a vegan place to also be a bit more conscious of the environment and have recycling bins for paper/glass in addition to the trash bin.
