"Marlene's restaurant may be a bit on the expensive side, but they offer a wide variety of natural foods such as carob powder, date syrup, and liquid lecithin, as well as other vegan products including cheese, meat substitutes, sauces, jerkies, chips, and dips. What sets Marlene's apart is their bakery and deli, which serves up delicious salads with vegan dressings, including a vegan caesar option. They also offer baked tofu as a protein choice, along with chickpeas and nuts/seeds. The deli offers a selection of vegan sandwiches, such as falafel, grilled cheese, and marinated tofu. They typically have at least one vegan soup available as well. Vegan baked goods include options like pumpkin bread, oat bars, and chocolate cakes. Additionally, there is a small refrigerator with prepared sandwiches from Hillside Quickie for those who don't want to wait for a custom-made sandwich."
