Vegetarians and vegans needn’t be left out of the fine dining experience at this restaurant, which offers a fully realized meat-free multi-course tasting menu.
At Allora, the fine-dining Italian restaurant in East Sacramento, chef Deneb Williams begins his entire process with vegetables.
“I was raised a vegetarian. My mom was a macrobiotic vegetarian my whole entire life. She still is; I only started eating meat when I started working in kitchens,” he said. “I do enjoy a steak every once in a while, but my passion for food is 100% about vegetables.”
Allora offers three-, four- and five-course tasting menus ($99-$159) in its serene dining room. Rather than just having one vegetarian or vegan dish per course, Allora’s vegetarian menu is as fully realized as its ominvore counterpart, with multiple options to choose from — not just the requisite mushroom risotto.
