CL Arts & Entertainment editor Debbie Michaud, a five-year vegetarian, goes on a search for a good veggie plate in (and around) Atlanta. Her findings include:
-having to ask for a vegetarian veggie plate at some locations (sometimes they have ham in them or meaty stocks)
-a mound of treasures at Restaurant Eugene
-a by-request-only faith-restoring plate at Rathbun’s

What is your take on the Southern veggie plate? Should it include meat or should it go fully meatless? Who serves your favorite veggie plate (please don’t answer “my grandma Opal” unless your grandma Opal owns a public restaurant)? Whose veggie plate get a Needs Improvement? Talk about how you get your veggies in the comments!
