This was a tricky one. I had to decide whether to review Great Sage as a restaurant or as a vegan restaurant. If I ended up somewhere in between, it's because Great Sage does a good job of not being qua-able. There was no room in the review to bring up my friend's objections to the qi at Great Sage -- he thought the decor was pretty enough but the Buddhist art and artifacts plucked his nerves. His vegetarianism (and former veganism) have zero to do, he says, with why he doesn't eat meat.
I know a guy who's like that about yoga -- he always look for the class with the least philosophy.
