Like many fast food chains, NYC's By Chloe serves salads, burgers and sweet desserts, but there's also something that sets this eatery far apart from others. From its selection of freshly pressed juices to ice cream and tacos, everything at By Chloe is plant-based.
The fast casual vegan restaurant is situated in New York City's Greenwich Village to form chef Chloe Coscarelli's first physical establishment, although she is well known for cookbooks like 'Chloe’s Vegan Italian Kitchen' and 'Chloe’s Vegan Desserts.'
While many vegan eateries are now gaining recognition for offering cruelty-free versions of comfort food, this eatery retains an emphasis on simplicity and health. For instance, its bacon replacement is actually made from a superfood mushroom. These kinds of health-centric innovations are sure to be of interest for those attending Trend Hunter’s New York innovation conference.
