We dropped by the newly re-opened Vox Pop last night and things are looking great. Our random notes:- It looks like there might be one or two more vegan options on the menu, all of which are marked with a little heart-healthy "V"
- The 3 lentil soup over rice dish was decent, but the highlight was their new "Bowl of Soul" creation. Chamomile tea, soymilk, vanilla, and honey (vegan version can be made with no honey). It tastes a little bit like Teany's amazing teanychino
- The crowd was small when we were there at 10 but it looked lively Saturday night.
- At one of the shareholder interest meetings we asked the new owner, Debi, if we could take down the 9/11 conspiracy theory bumper stickers now that Sander is gone. She enthusiastically urged us to rip them down. We're glad to report they are still down and have not been replaced.
- As shareholders, it would've been nice to get updates on the progress of the re-opening via e-mail. Instead we learned that the coffee shop was open again from DP Blog. When we became shareholders we kind of pictured getting quick mass e-mails like "All money has been raised, we're paying the fines Monday." "Fines have been paid, health inspector coming soon." "Passed health inspection." "Re-opening Friday." We would even accept "This e-mail is to confirm that you are a Vox Pop shareholder." So far, though, nothing. Hopefully as things settle down organization will follow and the people who invested in this place won't be left in the dark (like this picture).
