Dovetail Does Vegan

Manhattan dwellers living in the Upper West Side are in for a treat—for the spring and summer seasons, gourmet restaurant Dovetail will be serving a scrumptious vegetable-based prix fixe menu every Monday. Celebrated chef John Fraser, formerly of Taillevent in Paris and The French Laundry in California, is developing the veggie dishes. The three-course menu includes at least one vegan option for each course. Diners can choose such items as Tokyo Turnip and Apple Ceviche, Sweet and Sour Seitan, and Barbeque Parsnip Rib. For dessert? Vegan Maple Cheesecake.
