Boogie with the Vegan - Throgs Neck 7.7
Throgs Neck-Schuylerville
Vibes: Healthy Haven Comfort Food Classics Hidden Gems Heaven Quick Bites Champions
Boogie with the Vegan runs a fully plant-based Latin menu from a corner of La Masa’s East Tremont dining room, turning patacones, rice plates, and burgers into vegan comfort food. It’s a go-to for Bronx vegans who want hearty, rice-and-plantain plates rather than another salad spot.
Must-Try Dishes: Black Bean Burger, Arroz con Beef-less Ground, Vegan Encebollados
