Tried a new vegan spot in Chicago πŸ‘€πŸŒ± The Green Ap Tried a new vegan spot in Chicago πŸ‘€πŸŒ±

The Green Ape is currently in soft launch before opening officially on May 3rd, and we stopped by to check it out. 
@the.greenape 

What we tried:
– Lasagna roll up (definitely worth getting)
– β€œMane” attraction sandwich πŸ¦πŸ„
– Fried chick’n sandwich
– Baked vanilla donuts with lemon zest πŸ‹

Everything was really solid, but the lasagna roll up and donuts stood out the most for me.

If you’re nearby, it’s a nice one to check out before the official opening.
