About me:
When it comes to choosing a restaurant, I always want a second opinion, so Yelp used to be a perfect solution (even though I never thought I would post my own reviews). Although their ranking system seemed overly manipulated, Yelp was a convenient source for restaurant info, so I constantly referenced it. But when highly rated restaurants on the site began to fall flat, I was inclined to set the record straight. Over 50 yelp reviews later, I had had enough and decided to create The Confoodant, a place where a network of trusted food enthusiasts could grow and post their opinions.
Is it just a blog?
Confoodant.com is still in development, but the network of confoodants has already begun to grow and are invited to post their reviews on The Confoodant blog until the real website is up and running. The blog doesn't provide the features that the full site will, but just think of it as a temporary home to start sharing restaurant tips with people you trust (and who trust you).

This is a vegan soul-food joint out to prove that vegan doesn't have to mean healthy.
For a trendy place like this in the Village, they have really affordable lunch specials. Today I stopped by and got one for $6.50: the "soul chicken sandwich" plus the "collard green roll" appetizer. The waiter told me those are two of the most popular menu items.
When I first bit into the sandwich I thought it was an excellent imitation of a fried chicken sandwich... but after a minute I decided the fried coating and (vegan) mayonnaise were responsible for that. When I actually focused on the texture of the "chicken" itself I had mixed feelings... it was stringy, in a not-entirely-appealing way.
The collard green roll was basically a spring roll stuffed with greens and fake ham. It was good enough... but anything tastes fine when you wrap it in dough and deep fry it, right?
Bottom line, I wasn't wowed, but I'm going to go back and give it another try.
