About the event
Whether you're seasoned or fresh on your veggie journey, this mixer is a fun way to get to know fellow veg folks.
Kale My Name (KMN) is an award-winning, spacious, all-vegan restaurant with great service; lovely ambiance; a relaxed vibe; and ample appetizer, dinner, and drink (NA too) options!
Whole foods (e.g., lentil soup, kale) and juice/mocktails are favorites for health nuts there. Omnivores liked the burger and dips.
Please have a profile pic of you when you RSVP, and keep the RSVP updated, as space is limited. Around 10 attendees are likely with 30 RSVPs and the 30% attendance average in most veg groups lately.
Arrive at 7:00 for the best mixer seats (bar is backup). All y'all vegans/vegetarians and your guests are invited to optional informal speed friending (1.5-min intro from each attendee), which will begin at 8.
Optional karaoke and/or planet/star viewing trip prep will begin afterward. KMN closes at 10.
Weather-permitting, there may be a free a astronomer-hosted event at a nearby observatory. Otherwise, veg friendly karaoke is close!
Unfortunately, many vegan restaurants have closed, so I (Anu) encourage folks to support them when they can.
Here's an Interview with Nemanja, owner of KMN, about the closings:[ https://vegnews.com/chicago-vegan-restaurants-closin](https://vegnews.com/chicago-vegan-restaurants-closing)
