Lunch today: Mulberry & Vine

Kev bought a 30 day unlimited Metrocard contingent upon my agreement to meet for lunch often. We meet usually in Nolita or Soho, which is easy for both of us to get too. Today he came all the way to my work neighborhood, TriBeCa, for lunch at Mulberry & Vine. 

I'd been here once before for a coworker's birthday, and loved the selection of fresh made options, so was happy to come here again. The place has wifi too, so if one day I get a work laptop I'd love to do some work in its high ceilinged, well lit dining area or on the more secluded lofted second floor. 

We each got a plate of 2 cold/1 hot, $13.  ($1 gets you a bed of greens.) We shared the veggie curry, herb roasted chicken, kale and chia seed salad, tomato and watermelon salad, and beets with pomegranate seeds. We sat at the window counter and people watched while we ate. What's great about a lunch spot like this is that you don't get a food coma when you got back to your desk. 

We ate and still had time to take a stroll with coffee in hand from Kaffe 1668 nearby. Summer is ending but not just yet.
