You guys are the best!

You may have already heard, but your votes have won Red Bamboo Brooklyn the
Time Out Eat Out Award for Best Vegetarian Restaurant of 2007!

We are proud to share this testament to mock meat with the original Red Bamboo in Manhattan.

RED BAMBOO BROOKLYN.

Sprouts, shoots and leaves-we’re all for healthy vegetarian eating.
But sometimes the best way to judge a flesh-free joint is by how convincing
its mock meat is. Red Bamboo Brooklyn, a vegan and vegetarian Caribbean
home cookery, owns this category. Slip into the intimate, brick-walled
space and start with the appetizer combo: a trio of soul chicken (in a light
panko coating), Cajun fried shrimp (with a convincing sea-salt aftertaste) and
kicky buffalo barbecue wings (a stick takes the place of the bone).

The Willy Bobo sandwich, which layers soy ham, pickles and vegan Swiss cheese
on grilled coco bread, is better known to carnivores as a classic Cubano-herbivores
know it as a craveworthy alternative to duller veg fare.

-Time Out, Issue 602

Deepest gratitude to our friends and fans…
We’re looking forward to a great summer in Ft. Greene–be sure to visit.

spiffy new uniforms underway…

It is totally deserved - I was absolutely clueless that I was eating fake chicken at first at the baby shower!!

You’re doing the uniforms? How cool!

I agree with Carrie M - Love the coconut shrimp and that Willy Bobo sandwich. I haven’t had a bad thing on the menu yet. Everyone, Manhattan-ites included, should make a trip to RBBK. The mojitos are to die for too.
