1/7 Seven Deadly Sins.

If I had to pick one of the seven deadly sins that I am the best at, it would be gluttony (I would pick wrath for when anyone wakes me up from a nap...). I'm really great at over stuffing my plate, eating too much, usually going back for 2nds, 3rds, and pushing my stomach to the limits. The title of my blog says it all: Indulging Myself One Bite at a Time. Hey, I may even want to change it to [Over]indulging Myself One Bite at a Time.

This "trait" (for someone who likes to eat, I wouldn't call it a sin ;)) is shown best at a place like Maoz Vegetarian. While it prides itself on being healthy and light, it also creates a dangerous zone for people like me. It's pretty much a buffet line where you can order either a falafel sandwich or salad and go down the salad bar and stuff as much as you can in your sandwich or salad. Maoz has a 10% coupon for Mondays for their salad meal (I am also a sucker for any promotion!). I've heard pretty good things about Maoz too, so I was excited because of my new found love for falafel and all these Middle Eastern foods. I'm pretty obsessed now!!

You receive a container of lettuce and five falafel and then down the line you go, plus two add-ons that are included in the meal. I picked hummus and fried eggplant. The salad bar includes various salads like baba-ganoush, vegetable salad, coleslaw, red cabbage, beet salad, chickpea salad, corn salad, olives, tabouli, broccoli and cauliflower, (plus a lot more but this is what I got) and then various sauces (I'm obsessed with the garlic sauce). You bet I stuffed every type of salad and sauce in my box. I think the employees were pretty impressed.

All in all, I liked Maoz. Every bite you have something a little different and everything tasted fresh and clean. I especially liked the chickpea salad, beet salad and their hummus. It added such a creamy texture to the salad, so you didn't even need any type of dressing. Their falafel was pretty good too, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Even with the coupon, my meal was still $10, but after I polished the WHOLE thing off (more gluttony), I didn't even notice that it was dinner time 5 hours later. This can definitely fit as two meals. So Maoz, watch your buffet line because next time I come back, I'll be figuring out how to stuff way more stuff into my salad box (muhahahaha).


Gluttony at its finest. Currently making evil plans on how to stuff more next time... uh yeah the lettuce is down there somewhere.
