This hip and healthy spot in Lawrenceville serves up Polish food with a twist: It’s entirely vegan! Show up at 5 p.m. and wait to be seated – Apteka’s inventive dishes are worth the wait.
From pierogies with “double fat” (vegan sour cream) to a peppery herb spread that substitutes for caviar, meat eaters won’t know the difference. Top it off with a dessert of pacski (donuts with apricot, plum and poppyseed cream) or buns with strawberries and oat cream that are “to die for,” says one customer who echoes patrons’ refrain: “I’m not vegan and I loved every bite.”
