Treat yourself to FFT specialties including vegan and vegetarian lasagna, sautéed vegetables and brown rice, felafel and hummus, and the famous FFT lemon-tahini dressing in a separate café that overlooks the hustle and bustle of 14th Street. If you crave more traditional fare, the café offers such standards as burgers, nachos, BBQ chicken sandwiches, salads, and fries.The original Food For Thought Restaurant on Connecticut Ave. NW served the community for over 25 years with the same organic free-trade coffees and delicious-yet-health-conscious vegan, vegetarian, and locally raised natural beef and chicken dishes, but finally shuttered its doors in the summer of 1999.
