Gianna’s Grille: Dishing Up Homemade Eats and Vegan Treats
Craving a Philly cheese steak, but don’t want to cheat on your New
Year’s resolution to lose weight? Head on over to Gianna’s Grille
in Philadelphia! Gianna’s GG Special won’t doom your diet, because
it’s 100 percent vegan—made with veggie “steak”
and homemade soy cheese—not to mention 100 percent delicious! When
one regular carnivorous customer tried the GG Special, he loved it so much,
he never went back to the “real thing.”
Fabulous fooled-you “cheese steak” is just one of the veggie
delights dished up at Gianna’s. Other vegan eats include the BBQ Freebird
(a vegetarian “chicken” sandwich with soy cheese, fried onions,
and barbecue sauce), Chicken Run “chicken” salad, luscious lasagna
with veggie beef and soy cheese, and pizza topped with your choice of mock
meats like “pepperoni,” “sausage,” and “ham,”
soy cheese, and all the veggies you could ask for. Oh, and did we mention
that all the desserts—including the decadent homemade “cheesecakes”—are
vegan?
Gianna’s owners, Babs and Paul, opened the restaurant (named after
their daughter) in 1997 with the goal of providing “a place where
everyone could have a great meal, whether they were vegan or not. We
wanted the strictest vegans to be able to dine with carnivorous friends
and family and have everyone enjoy themselves the same.”
It’s working! Gianna’s has developed a following among meat-eaters
and vegetarians alike, and so many bands stop in when they’re in town
that the restaurant has started a “wall of fame” filled with
tour posters and comments from the musicians. But you don’t have to
be a star to eat like one. Just visit Gianna’s when you’re in
Philly, or whip up the restaurant’s warming broccoli and cauliflower
bisque in your own kitchen tonight.
