Tomatoes and peppers are colorful and flavorful, so they turn up in everything. It's very frustrating. I can't eat them (tomatoes are iffy. They seem to be all right if they're not mixed with the wrong spices), and Scott and Cordelia won't.

The thing I've noticed at Seva is that, as one goes to the vegan options (for avoiding dairy and eggs), one hits more nuts and soy. It's a tapdance in a minefield. There's probably a safe option on the menu, but it may or may not be an appealing option.
