~Tasty Harmony~

You can’t help but feel the tranquil liveliness when you step into this restaurant. Its quaint like the many of the shops and eateries lining the streets of downtown Fort Collins. The vibrant colored walls, vaulted antique plaited ceiling, and nicely oriented collection of art, teapots and plant life makes for an airy, inviting space. 

We were seated in a small side room where the wood paneling, lovely crown moldings and exposed brick and piping could be noticed and admired.  

To accompany the teapots they have a large variety of loose teas with descriptions of their health benefits underneath it that they brew fresh by the cup or the pot. The menu is a food connoisseurs dream.  The names of the local farms were they get their ingredients are on the front. Inside you’ll find their entire menu items nicely labeled with dots indicated if that dish includes dairy or gluten. If not then the item is entirely vegan, but don’t be put off by the sound of that. This isn’t your crazy vegan aunt’s pinecone and granola type dishes. Nothing, including flavor and animals are sacrificed in these culinary masterpieces. Tasty Harmony’s food includes some ingredients the average person probably hasn’t heard of. On the back, for your dining conveniences, is included a glossary with descriptions of the “out there” ingredients. At lunch you can order half a sandwich and soup for under $7. The most delicious item I’ve eaten was the Jackfruit nachos. Jackfruit is a starchy vegetable that, when cooked, takes on the flavor and texture of a cross between an artichoke heart and chicken.
