Original Post
The 10th Annual Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge is now underway! The event takes place October 1 – 31, so there is plenty of time to check out multiple restaurants and their special offerings.
Participants this year includes twenty-two Sacramento restaurants, seven outlying restaurants, and twelve Pop-Ups.
Outlying participating restaurants are located in: Elk Grove, Fair Oaks, Folsom, Rancho Cordova, Rocklin and Roseville.

A number of the restaurants have participated in previous Vegan Chef Challenges. For example, last year Capitol Garage was recognized as the “Longest Participating Venue” (2011-2019) and will obviously retain its title as it is once again participating.
Sacramento Vegan Chef Challenge Restaurants
Sacramento restaurants participating in the Vegan Chef Challenge are: Burger Patch; Capitol Garage; Dubplate Kitchen & Jamaican Cuisine; El Papagayo Restaurant (Carmichael); Evan’s Kitchen; Ike’s Love & Sandwiches (Midtown); Kasbah; Mayahuel; Mesa Mercardo (Carmichael); Midtown Sushi; NoMoo at the Corner; Oak Park Brewing Company; Preethi Indian Cuisine; Pure Soul Plant Based Eats; Revolution Winery & Kitchen; River City Brewing Company; Sacramento Natural Foods Co Op; Solomon’s Delicatessen; Thai Basil; The Porch; VEG Café; and, Wayside Noodles (Natomas).
After checking out the menus for this year’s Vegan Chef Challenge I made a list of the offerings I would like to try before the month is over. While I am by no means vegan, nor vegetarian for that matter, I do like a variety of dishes that just happen to be vegan.
As always, the Vegan Chef Challenge organizers are asking participants to vote for and comment on their favorite menu items. I have not to date submitted comments on the vegan dishes I have sampled in previous years – but I might this year.
