Unfortunately, the menu's lacks imagination and is a bit limited, especially for brunch. \n\nThere are more choices for drinks than there are for food, hence the name Tearoom. All teas and coffees are served in french presses with an egg timer so you get the perfect brew. You get the choice of soy, rice or almond milk and a wide range of sweeteners.\n\nThe blue corn griddle cakes served with maple syrup and blueberries was full of fibery goodness.\n\nWe also had a spelt foccacia sandwich filled with an artichoke-garlic spread, spinach and shredded carrots. The salty miso soup helped balance the blandness of the sandwich.\n\nHealthy doesn't necessarily mean bland. I've had some great raw vegan meals in NYC where they use lots of herbs and spices to make up for less salt. Mandala could be great with an injection or two of creativity."^^ . "3"^^ . "1"^^ .
