Kalachandji's Restaurant and Palace
This gourmet vegetarian restaurant is a celebration of a centuries-old religious figure. Worshipped in India as the the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kalachandji translates as "the beautiful moon-faced one." Kalachandji's serves a rotating seasonal menu that includes vegan dishes and never involves canned or frozen vegetables. The Palace also offers weekly cooking classes for a small fee. The notoriously beautiful dining room integrates living trees as a canopy. Sparkling lights in the tree branches create a magical effect for gatherings of close friends and family.

Greenz Salads for Z'Adventurous
After owner Cassie Caldwell fell in love with a gourmet salad too expensive to enjoy on a regular basis, she quit her corporate job and created Greenz Salads. The food Caldwell fell in love with is now available at affordable prices in a friendly, casual environment. Try the BBQ Texas slaw wrap and a glass of wine on the outdoor patio, or experiment with an innovative salad prepared with fresh ingredients and presented beautifully. Greenz dishes enchant and entice the eyes as much as the taste buds. The Dallas Observer named Greenz as one of the best places for salad in 2005. Limited delivery is available.
