Ingrid: we're well aware of moto around these parts. And Ben Roche (Cantu's pastry chef) is one of the most creative in the city. Margaret (Boss): Ben Roche's desserts are another reason you should be making a beeline to moto.

Thanks Chuck. Sometimes "non-dairy" doesn't always mean "vegan", which is why I ask. I'll hold off on making assumptions until they're open and I get a chance to ask them directly. This place sounds interesting to me, vegan options or not.

Margaret, If you like 'science' food might I suggest an excursion to "Moto"...it's pretty fun. Chef Kantu uses nitrogen, lasers...has edible menus, food and flavor combinations that are crazy and delicious. Our only complaint was that you're going to pay over $300 for two people and then you want to stop at Epic Burger on the way home. But you've got to go at least once just for the pure novelty and experience.

Stephen: I made the assumption that by writing "non-dairy" readers assume I mean soy or other vegetable-based milks and creams, or possibly juices and sugar for sorbets.

Customers get to choose their choice of dairy (or non-dairy) base Chuck, do you know if by saying one of the bases is "non-dairy", that means some of their stuff is vegan? May be wishful thinking on my part but thought I'd ask...
