10May 31st, 2011figueroa produce, LA restaurantsif you live in los angeles, you best be planning on eating dinner tonight in highland park, because there’s gonna be a vegan southern cookout at figueroa produce!
come to the vegan cookout!
to coincide with their weekly (and very vegan-friendly) food truck event, the staff at figueroa produce will be cooking up all kinds of goodness inside the store. menu and prices after the jump. it all looks incredible!
Entrees
Two special sandwiches with fresh seasonings and ingredients on fresh baked French bread, toasted with chili butter and garnished with fresh arugulaYour choice of Po-Boy, as supplies last are:
Lemon rosemary chicken* Po-Boy with creamy cucumber sauce
Chili Burger* Po-boy with onion fritter with chipotle mayo
$7 eachSide dishes are:
Hamtastic** Southern Greens (we don’t overcook ’em, we like you to taste the greens!) $4.00 a plate
Jalapeno chunky cornbread muffins with whole grain corn and wheat flours and fresh corn and peppers (huge hit with the taste testers) $1.50 each or $7 a half dozenFor kids we have Chicken fingers* in pickle ketchup or barbecue sauce $6.00 for 5 fingers and fresh carrot and celery sticks
Get a meal with a cornbread muffin, greens, and a Po-Boy for $10.00, or a kid’s plate with Chicken fingers, a muffin, and greens for $9.00
All the sandwiches are made to order, and all the dishes are prepared with fresh picked, organic herbs and vegetables, locally baked fresh breads, and all recipes made by a very fussy vegan chef to ensure it’s all vegan and delicious.
*This week we’ll be serving up Fry’s Vegan chicken, hamburger, and chicken fingers. Next week we will be featuring Match Meats.
** We use the kobe vegan lunch meat ham for that extra smokey flavora note from the chef: Be sure to ask for things to be “more spicy” and I’ll drop the atomic love sauce on your dinner.
oooh, sounds epic, doesn’t it?! everyone, please show up for this because if the turnout is good, it will encourage figgy prod to do more vegan events in the future. plus if you haven’t tried fry’s or match meats yet, this is a great chance. both products will rock your socks.
see you guys there!

If it had been yesterday I’d have been all over it, but with work and all that, I can’t make it to Highland Park in time.
I guess “Din Din A Go Go” is an every-Tuesday thing. It’s too bad an event like that is a day after a perfect opportunity (everyone’s day off).

The sandwich, greens and cornbread were good, but I don’t think I’ll be back. It’s a 35 mile round trip from where I live (and a 48 mile round trip for my friend who I carpool with). Then we had to wait about an hour before we got our food. Also, there was no place to sit and eat the food, either inside or outside the store. Not even the food trucks in the parking lot had any tables or seats.

“Hello there! Our first attempt had a few issues, and we are absolutely going to fix them next time. We will have seating, more grills, and better organization. Thanks for visiting and sorry about the wait!”

I must concur with Tony’s comments above. We waited way too long for our sandwiches….and they were deliverd 10 minutes apart, so my husband and I ate separately….standing up…. at the meat counter….staring a bunch of dead flesh.
