LAVBF 2012 photos!

i can’t believe it has already been a week since this year’s LA Vegan Beer and Food Fest. such an amazing day; we can’t wait for the next one! huge thanks to the roxy and tony’s darts away…plus all the breweries, bands, food vendors, and volunteers for making this day possible. here are some snaps of the event. unfortunately this is just a small slice of the fest—-i didn’t get pictures of everything. trust me, you don’t wanna miss the next one.

seriously, if you haven’t been to m cafe, get over there now!! the menu is macrobiotic and entirely vegan with the exception of clearly labeled fish items, and has something for everyone—-breakfast, healthy salads, sushi, burgers, and plenty of desserts.
