San Francisco Chronicle

On a particularly downtrodden block of Mission

Street, Kam's Vegetable Restaurant is a breath of

fresh air - and fresh food. The minimally furnished

space has a few tables in front, a counter where

Sabima Ng serves up smoothies and Peerless coffee, and

a salad bar packed with hearty fare. Noodles, sushi,

soup, exotic greens and macrobiotic salads are

tailor-made for vegetarians, vegans or anyone in

search of a whopping dose of antioxidants. Soy and

tofu abound, though sodas, Snapple and commercial

dressings are also available. Look closely and you'll

see signs asking " What's missing in your body? " and

admonishing you to " Save the world. "

Ng, who has worked in several Chinese restaurants,

says, " Too much oil - I wanted people healthy. " And it

doesn't have to cost much. For less than $5, you can

walk out with a veggie lunch fit for a king - and a

rice cookie made with honey to finish it off. .

Kam's Vegetable Restaurant, 2074 Mission St. (between

16th and 17th streets), San Francisco. Open 8 a.m.Ð5

p.m., Monday-Saturday.
