Perhaps the only disadvantage of a restaurant having a wide selection of vegetarian options is the dramatic increase in the difficulty of choosing a meal. Not only does Cool Cafe have a large selections of vegetarian dishes, they have dishes representing a wide variety of genres, compounding this problem further. Their menu offers pasta dishes, rice dishes, both savory and sweet crepes, Mediterranean dishes, and all-day breakfast. Overwhelming, yes, but totally worth the mental effort involved in ordering.
I had the portabello pasta - penne pasta and portabello mushrooms with a sun dried-tomato cream sauce. The mushrooms were moist and flavorful, and the cream sauce was delicious but not overly rich. I also tried my boyfriend's crepe, which was stuffed with portabellos and artichokes and smothered in sauce. It made me question my choice in entree, but only until I dove back into my delicious pasta. It did affirm, however, that you can order just about anything off of the menu and be thoroughly satisfied.
It will take me a very long time to get through tasting everything on their menu, which will keep me coming back for more. Next time, I hope to try their Greek omelet or one of their crepes.

My only regret is that you do not live in my town, and are thus making me salivate for restaurants beyond my reach.
That's why you need to come to Texas!
