According to a news report from jamaicaplaingazette.com, “A sister store to T.J. Scallywaggle’s, a popular vegan pizzeria in Allston, is coming to South Street as soon as September, according to founder Steve Carian.”
“Felicia Scallywaggle’s will open at 142 South St., where Felix Pizzeria was driven out by a 2006 arson fire. Carian said the name of the new Scallywaggle’s is a tribute to the burned-out business, adding that he has known its former owner, Felix Merida, for several years. Merida moved his shop to Allston after the fire,” said the story. “It’s in part a continuation of the tradition and in part something new,” Carian said. “Veganism is a pure form of vegetarianism that avoids the use of all animal products. Scallywaggle’s uses soy-based substitutes for cheese and meat under such light-hearted alternative terms as “cheeze,” “pepperino” and “sauhsage.” Boston Magazine last year named the Allston shop Boston’s best vegetarian restaurant, saying its food can “satisfy even the most carnivorous appetites.”
