Zen Palate

The Zen Palate is a vegan/vegetarian restaurant in Manhattan (one possibly coming to LA!). They serve healthy but amazingly delicious Asian-fusion.
My personal favorite dish is the "Sizzling Medallions", which sounds a little vague and therefore sketchy, but is absolutely amazing. They are made out of seitan (vital wheat gluten). According to the menu, they are 'crispy wheat gluten filet a l'orange, with fresh asparagus, mushrooms, string beans and red onions on a sizzling platter". 
One time I ordered the dish with my Grandma, who loved them and was shocked to discover that they are vegan!
Also highly reccomended are the yam fries and onion pancakes.
