Fancy Plants Kitchen, Chicago, IL Videos

Videos by Fancy Plants Kitchen in Chicago. Plant Based Dining and Dinner Parties!

There are 12 fermented products that we made in-house for this 5-course Vegan Tasting Menu! Nearly everything is offered a la carte as well, so you can come for our $5 Happy Hour, and enjoy dishes from our Fermentation February Menu.

Have you ever had ‘plant based’ food like this?
I believe fermentation is not only the past, but the future of vegan cooking, and we’re excited to honor these traditions, fine tuned for the modern palette.

In the future, as people realize the necessity of using less animal proteins, they are going to be using fermentation to make their own plant-based proteins and umami. Are we trying to be the vegan Noma of the midwest? Not exactly. We’re just figuring this out as well...

... we do hope to see you for dinner tonight though. Support your local independent vegan restaurants!

Chef Garrett, putting the finishing touches on the Wellington’s he led the creation of. THEY ARE SO GOOD AND INDULGENT. Both Garrett and I have trained in some great kitchens, and he has a strong classical background, with an appreciation for classics. Sure, this is a #vegan steak we’re making here, but it tastes like my memories got updated and upgraded. If Frank Sinatra was vegan, he’d be singing its praises.

Fancy Plants Fall Brunch
Lately our nightly dinner service gets all the praise and attention, but we want to take a moment to tell you about our weekend brunch! Saturday and Sunday mornings I look forward to our Breakfast and Coffee. I love the Oyster Mushroom Benedict with our Hollandaise, but the Steak and Avocado Breakfast Burrito is my new favorite. Our vegan steak charred in the wok and served with avocado, our rich red salsa and some crema, it is a large plate of very satisfying food. So damn good. Our Vegan Chicken and Waffles is a fan favorite, but I’m crushing on Amelia’s Pumpkin Pie Pancakes. This weekend we’ll be making apple and fig topping. I fold these things up and eat them like tacos. See you at dinner tonight, and see you at brunch! Saturdays and Sundays 11:00 - 3:00, breakfast and lunch, full bar and espresso. Check our website for brunch and dinner menus! Our cocktail menu, wine list, happy hour, and N/A drink specials too. https://www.fancyplantskitchen.com #vegan #veganchicago #veganfoodchicago #vegoutchicago #vegansofig #vegansofinstagram #vegoutmagazing #chicagovegan #Chicagorestaurants #chicagodining #forkyeah #feedfeed #312foodie #chicago #chicagofoodie #eaterchicago #chicagofoodmag #infatuationchi #choosechicago #chicagofoodauthority #chitribfood #chicagotribunefood #chicagodiningscene #instachicago #nowopen #veganbrunch #chicagobrunch #lincolnparkpatio #fabfoodchicago

Our fabulous Bartender Katie is trapped in the mirror, and we need a few brave Happy Hour patrons to help break her free. This is no small mission, and it requires the highest order of bravery. The only thing that helps, is when customers order $5 Vegan Happy Hour appetizers, and a few glasses of wine from Katie. We now have an expanded list of several affordable wines by the glass. It is a tall order, but I know YOU can do this. Come save Katie! And if you feel like dining at home, Fancy Plants Kitchen is now on GrubHub as well. Hope to see you soon!

People are responding to our teasing kfc over our superior ‘vegan chicken nuggets’ so well, that we figure we’d keep the party going and bring back Ida’s Chicken and Waffles again. She makes a maple bourbon sriracha syrup that is pretty damn good. Pour some sugar on me, indeed. We’re open for brunch from 10:00- 3:00 today… see you then!

I may be biased, but I think Fancy Plants Kitchen, our new vegan restaurant is so damn beautiful. Tonight we’re continuing our competition with the KFC vegan nuggets by offering our own for $5 happy hour! Happy hour is from 5:00 - 6:30, and while we do have an extensive dinner menu and full bar, we’re also offering a ‘Chickun Parmesan’ sandwich for dinner! We are more of a ‘upscale vegan’ date night place, but damn, sometimes people just want to have some fun too, and we acknowledge that! Maybe see you tonight? Give a new vegan restaurant some love. 😀 #vegan #veganchicago #chicagovegan #lincolnpark @fancyplantscafe
