“New vegan cafe (73 Farm) pop up opened in the National Union Building. Offering fresh vegetables, meals, ingredients and mocktails.”

73 Farm’s website says:

“Indoor fresh farmers market and vegan cafe featuring a New Orleans style sustainability focused menu. Much of traditional Cajun & Creole food was created out of preserving resources and embracing the natural flavors that come from vegetables as most recipes start with the holy trinity.

We are the former owners of a local plant based meat company and while we still embrace plant based meat alternatives we wanted to this pop up cafe to show our customers what is possible with vegan food. As a traveling engineer, when I was in the south vegan food was the hardest to find especially done to the same standards as the more meat focused dishes. Just as I thought I would have no luck, one night at the Gumbo Stop in New Orleans proved me wrong. I had the most delicious butter beans and rice dish and a fine Sazerac to wash it down and it brought me right back to my family’s New Orleans roots. My grandmother waking up early in the morning and smell of piles of chopped celery, onions, and green peppers filling the kitchen. That’s what 73 Farm is all about, sharing family comfort food with real ingredients and authentic flavor from our family to yours.”
