THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Blossom Restaurant Review:

Quality organic vegan cuisine and a chic atmosphere are rarely found together. Thus, Ronen Seri and his wife, Pamela --- both former actors --- opened Blossom, located in a historic two-story building in Chelsea. The design is light and airy though rustic hints like the dark wood bar and fireplace give the eatery an established vibe. Dishes might range from seitan empanadas with saffron aïoli, guacamole and hearts of palm to hickory basted tempeh with roasted fingerling potatoes, collard greens and horseradish crème fraîche. At lunch, dig into the savory scrambled tofu served with spinach, mushrooms, white onion and soy sausage. While eating and conversation go hand in hand above the soft background music, the sweet desserts such as the apple cinnamon sticks with a brandied caramel sauce deserve your full attention. Wine and beer are available.
