Veggie Conquest

Thanks again to our capacity crowd on Saturday night! Big thanks to our volunteers, sponsors, and especially the amazingly talented amateur chefs! They made amazing food!! You can check out the really cool video and write-up that vegansaurus.com did about VC#2. They interviewed all the chefs about their dishes.

And thanks to Sara and Sarma Photography for taking pictures! Music (mix tape) provided by DJ lil Ray!
