Not only is Veg on the Edge a vegan restauraunt, but it's kosher, gluten-free and halal as well. And that is why we're giving them, and the owner Akindele Bankole a shout out this week.
Compassion is served up with Nigerian influenced wraps, bowls and more. Sweet Potato Peanut Soup, Yaji Jollof Rice & Moin Moin (Black-Eyed Pea Loaf) and of course Akindele's favorite, Plaintain Fries are just a few of the flavorful dishes to try.
When podcasting, the sound is of paramount importance. I was worried when I interviewed Akindele in the food court of the restaurant. It was lunchtime, the place was just opening and folks were lining up to dig in. I needn't have worried.
"A Compassionate Edge" was the result. You can not only hear us clearly, but you can also feel how much this man loves what he does, spreading compassion and humanity through everything he does. A restaurant owner, opera singer, and composer, German Born-Nigerian-Jewish American Akindele was and is, one of my new favorite people.
