In the time since this post was written, Trella restaurant has closed.
Hi all:
Just a brief note to tell you that Trella is not serving pancakes and french toast for brunch after all. Those items are proving a bit harder to work in, requiring new recipes etc. rather than simple swaps. We’ll see if we can get them back on the menu in the future. In the meantime, Trella still does have a some vegan breakfast options. But Cafe My House or The Imperial are going to have to give you your vegan pancake/french toast fix for now.
I’ll keep you posted!

Thanks for the recipe, but the problem is NOT that they don’t have a recipe. The NCVA has provided them with everything they need. They are just experiencing difficulty actually rolling it out. They’re doing great with the dinner items, but some more time is needed for them to incorporate some of the proposed breakfast offerings.
