Lucia's Vegan Lifestyle takes us to places that are out to change all that. We'll stop at Galioto's, a family-owned and operated vegan coffee shop, grocer, and delicatessen in Little Italy. Tavola in Hell's Kitchen is a wood oven trattoria serving pizza, parmigiana, and lasagna with vegan mozzarella. Down the street, Vito's Slices and Ices also uses vegan mozzarella on their old-school slices and pies. Screamers in Greenpoint is the go-to pizzeria when vegans want to know they have everything on the menu - from the classic, to white slice with ricotta, zeppole, and cannoli. Join us as Lucia talks with the owners of these great places and samples the goods. Plus, a social media exclusive: Lucia has created an extravagant 5-cheese potato lasagna using one of her favorite vegetables - Romanesco. Tune in to find out how you can view the recipe.
