Dear Friends,
Today is the birthday of the Russian writer Pushkin I’ve always liked his name, but must admit I haven’t read any of his work. I only know it’s his birthday because this morning’s Writer’s Almanac email told me. But I am familiar with Pushkin’s restaurant on Capitol Avenue, not far from me. I’ve been meaning to go there, except that it’s vegan, and I figured the food must be righteous and bland. But to celebrate Pushkin, I decided to go there for lunch today. It was busy and bright and and I loved the arugula omelette. I was wrong. In the right hands vegan is delicious. (There was no sign of a vegan Pushkin birthday cake.)
Love,
k
