Most of us can agree that Boston's restaurant scene is hot — local chefs and restaurants are putting Boston on the culinary map and we're no longer "just a lobster and chowder town."

The Boston vegan scene is also growing. In the last 18 months, four new vegan restaurants have set up shop in the area.

We'll be joined in the studio by two local chefs who put their own signature on vegan cuisine. We'll be taking your questions and sharing some of their secrets. They even gave us a few of their prized recipes!

Guests:

Pankaj Pradhan, chef/owner, Red Lentil in Watertown
Stuart Reiter, chef, True Bistro in Somerville
