Don't know if you are familiar with him from when he had Zare, but he did right by vegetarians in a big way there. There was always at least one veg entree on the menu (the lentil- or bean-stuffed peppers had nary a grain of rice or a shred of pasta on the plate), or he'd entree-size an appetizer, combine sides, do a pasta, etc. Once, I went with a vegan friend and he made some special off-menu vegan fritter type thing of grated veggies. Just on the fly. Later this summer, I think -- put it on your list!

Usually about a third of their menu is vegetarian and the food is excellent. I've found that East Bay restaurants overall tend to cater more to vegetarians than San Francisco restaurants do.

Definitely worth the drive at $4.50+ a gallon - just tough to get in. www.supperclubsacramento.com The Supper Club in Sacramento offers a complete vegetarian tasting menu.

It's not a clafoutis, but it is sweet and corny and dee-lush-us. Run, don’t walk, to Canteen and eat the sweet corn clafoutis. It’s not a clafoutis, but it is sweet and corny and dee-lush-us.

Apparently, I'm so good at guilt-tripping, I am now completely unaware as to when I am doing it. It must be the Sicilian in me. Whatever the case, I'm glad it provoked you into posting.
