Join us for a special farewell dinner at Candle before the restaurant closes soon as announced by Jorge on IG [\[ - - IG Link - - \]](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbwL-LstiVu/?igsh=MWY1Z3Y2bXg3aHIwYg==). The New York City Vegetarian & Vegan Meetup is delighted to co-host this event with the amazing vegan activist and educational organization Plant Powered Metro New York (PPMNY). (Among many other things, PPMNY literally has contracts with New York City to provide vegan eating health education! Amazing!) We salute and applaud Lianna Levine Reisner, the visionary Founder, President and Network Director of Plant Powered Metro New York. And we hugely thank Rebecca Johnson of PPMNY for founding, organizing and curating the magnificent Plant Powered Plates program, and for expertly organizing this event and co-hosting with us.

Candle carries forward the legacy of the beloved Candle family of vegan restaurants (including the beloved Candle Cafe) which has long been part of New York City’s plant-based dining scene. Let’s gather for one last evening of great food, conversation, and community as we celebrate this cherished restaurant. Please arrive before 7:00 p.m. and we will be seated promptly at 7:00 p.m.
TWO ORDERING OPTIONS For this one final celebration, you may choose either of the following:
1. Final Toast Experience — $25 (OPTIONAL, AND MUST BE PURCHASED IN ADVANCE IF DOING.) This package includes a Mocktail Mojito and Twin Tacos of Roasted Cauliflower and Wild Mushroom. [\[ - - Click Here To Reserve Final Toast - - \]](https://plantpoweredmetrony.app.neoncrm.com/nx/portal/neonevents/events?path=%2Fportal%2Fevents%2F55742) 2. Order from the restaurant menu. If you do not pay for the Final Toast Experience when RSVPing, you are welcome to order and pay for your meal directly from Candle’s standard menu or the Plant Powered Plates menu. Just show up as you do for any regular meetup, choose your food from the full menu (or the special Plant Powered Plates menu), and pay for yourself at the restaurant. No advance planning or paying needed.
For those of you who have never attended one of our Meetup events: this is an incredibly friendly & welcoming group. It will be easy to find our group: we are taking over the majority of the restaurant. Also, everyone pays for their own meal. Easy!
Where to Meet: Look for us inside or ask the staff if needed.
